Mexico’s attorney general’s office has called a close former aide of President Enrique Pena Nieto to respond to accusations he was involved in Brazilian builder Odebrecht’s corruption scandal, a lawyer for the aide said.
Brazil’s O Globo newspaper reported this weekend on documents alleging that Emilio Lozoya, who also formerly headed state oil company Pemex, received $10 million in bribes from a former Odebrecht executive from 2012 in return for a contract at Mexico’s Tula refinery.
