Just after posting this
at top stories for the week:
The story that simply disappeared: the Mexican fuel shortage
This was an
AP headline story:
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador says the attorney
general’s office will investigate an illegal pipeline tap in central
Mexico that killed 66 and wounded dozens of others.
At an early morning press conference he said that the
office will open an investigation to determine whether the explosion was
intentional — caused by an individual or group — or whether the
fireball occurred due to the inherent risk of clandestine fuel
extraction from ducts.
Lopez Obrador called on townspeople to give testimony
not only about Friday’s events in Hidalgo, but about the entire black
market chain, including who punctures the pipelines, who informs locals
about collecting fuel in containers, and how fuel is then put to
personal use or sold.
Something tells me this is not going to end well.
