MEXICO CITY - Prosecutors have accused the leader of the Mexican oil workers union, Carlos Romero Deschamps, of corruption, the Reforma newspaper reported on Tuesday, amid a broader push by President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador to root out graft.
Later, a source in the financial intelligence unit, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the accusations to Reuters. Lopez Obrador’s eight-month-old government has made fighting corruption a top priority, as evidenced in early efforts to stymie fuel thieves working in concert with employees of national oil company Pemex as well as issuing arrest warrants for former Pemex Chief Executive Emilio Lozoya in a separate case.
