During the presidential conference, the director of Petróleos Mexicanos, Octavio Romero Oropeza, maintained that as part of the fight against corruption, in the case of fraud in the purchase of the Agronitrogenados plant, carried out in 2013, of the 216 million dollars that The former president of Altos Hornos, Alonso Ancira, agreed to pay, the payment of 104 million dollars has already been achieved.
On the other hand, he highlighted the case of corruption of the person who now chairs the organization Mexicans against Corruption, María Amparo Casar, since through irregularities and the exercise of influence she managed to get Pemex to improperly pay her compensation and pension for the death of her husband, Carlos Fernando Marquez.
However, this payment was inappropriate because it was made for a natural death when in reality it was a suicide, so the aforementioned payment, which currently amounts to 31 million accumulated pesos, did not correspond. “This is an important case of corruption because it is a case led by those who decide to fight corruption, they say they are against corruption. We say they are in favor of corruption.”
The official explained that on February 7, 2004, Marqués, then coordinator of advisors of the Administration Directorate of Pemex, died after falling from the 12th floor. Without expert reports, Casar arranged for the insurance to be paid, payment for the funeral service and a post-mortem pension for her and her children. However, it was proven, through an expert opinion, that it had been a suicide, so that payment was not appropriate and now Pemex is trying to get Mrs. Casar to return what she unduly collected.
