Pena Nieto real-estate scandal deepens
Wednesday, January 21, 2015
Further evidence of favoritism involving Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto’s administration and real-estate developers emerged on Tuesday, as an investigation by The Wall Street Journal revealed that a contractor who sold a property to the president in 2005 went on to win over $100 million in government contracts.
The discovery follows November reports that another construction company sold a house to the president’s family and subsequently won contracts for public works.
