Emilio Lozoya, former director of Pemex, was extradited to Mexico from Spain to face charges of managing $4 million in bribes from Odebrecht, allegedly used for the PRI campaign that elected Enrique Peña Nieto in 2012. Lozoya, who was involved in international affairs for the campaign and led Pemex from 2012 to 2016, is the only Mexican official detained in the Odebrecht bribery network across Latin America.
