Two U.S. law enforcement agencies are reviewing accusations that tie Andrés Manuel "Andy" López Beltrán to organized crime contacts and a fuel-tax evasion scheme known in Mexico as huachicol fiscal, according to a New York Times report citing five individuals with direct knowledge of the agencies' inquiries. No criminal indictment has been filed, and no formal legal proceeding has been opened against him in the United States as of this reporting.
The scrutiny comes at a consequential moment for the 40-year-old politician, who stepped down in May 2026 from his role as secretary of organization of the ruling Morena party to seek a federal congressional seat in Tabasco's Sixth Electoral District for the 2027 midterm elections.
