HELSINKI (Reuters) - Finland has demanded that Mexico carry out a full investigation into the shooting death of a Finnish human rights activist this week, the Nordic country said on Friday.
Finnish human rights observer Jyri Jaakkola and Beatriz Carino, Mexican director of the rights group CACTUS, died when gunmen attacked a convoy of some 30 rights workers on Tuesday.
The convoy was trying to deliver food and supplies to San Juan Copala in the impoverished state of Oaxaca, where tensions have been building between towns of indigenous Triqui people.
