Eduardo León Trauwitz

Eduardo León Trauwitz is a retired general and former head of security for Pemex, Mexico's state-owned oil company. He has gained attention for his accusations against former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, alleging that the issue of fuel theft, known as huachicoleo, has been institutionalized during his administration. León Trauwitz asserts that massive and systematic fuel smuggling has been occurring for years, particularly highlighting the involvement of organized crime and complicity within the government and Pemex. Currently residing in Canada, he is awaiting extradition to Mexico, where he faces legal challenges related to his tenure at Pemex and his claims about widespread corruption and theft within the oil sector.
