President Claudia Sheinbaum announced a new line of investigation into persistent fuel theft from Pemex pipelines, coordinating six federal agencies.
President Claudia Sheinbaum said the government opened a third investigation into fuel stolen from Pemex pipelines, a problem that persisted after declining under former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
The investigation involves coordination between the Tax Administration Service (SAT), the Energy Secretariat, Pemex, the Security Secretariat, the Army, and the Navy. Sheinbaum did not give a start date or a target figure for the probe.
The read here is that the theft has not stopped despite earlier progress, and the government is now treating it as a multi-agency priority rather than a single-entity problem.
