Vitol SA, the target of a corruption probe in Mexico, must disclose who at Petroleos Mexicanos took bribes from the commodities trader, said President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
If Vitol fails to disclose the information, the trading giant will continue to be barred from doing business in Mexico, the president said Tuesday. Pemex, as the state-owned oil company is known, will give an update on its internal bribery investigation later in the day, he said.
