MEXICO CITY — Four journalists with Mexican news organizations remained missing Wednesday, two days after they were kidnapped in northern Mexico after covering disturbances at a troubled prison.

The seizure appeared to have been aimed at manipulating media coverage of drug gangs that are battling in the violence-plagued states of Durango and Coahuila.

It was not immediately clear who carried out the kidnappings, though journalists said it probably was a trafficking group that is said to hold sway at the Durango prison.
