During her Feb. 19 morning press conference, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters that extradition requests are already underway for U.S. entrepreneurs involved in the illegal importation of fuel into Mexico without paying taxes, a practice known in Mexico as "huachicol fiscal," or fiscal fuel theft.
When asked whether extradition had been requested from the United States given that the individuals also face legal processes in Mexico, Sheinbaum said the Attorney General's Office is responsible for providing information within the framework of the investigation, including the names of the individuals involved.
