Former head of Mexican oil firm Pemex, Emilio Lozoya, has denied being involved in shifting cash to President Enrique Pena Nieto’s campaign.
Pena Nieto ally Lozoya rejected claims published by Brazil’s O Globo newspaper that he had taken $10 million in bribes in 2012 from a former executive at Odebrecht SA, Latin America’s biggest construction firm, in return for a refinery contract.
Citing bank documents, a separate report by civil society group Mexicans Against Corruption said payments had been made when Lozoya was a senior official in the campaign that clinched the presidency for Pena Nieto in 2012.
