Legal proceedings against Gilda Lozoya Austin

Overview

Legal proceedings involving Gilda Susana Lozoya Austin in the Agronitrogenados case have seen conflicting judicial rulings in Mexico City.

On August 12, 2026, a federal judge granted a definitive suspension to Lozoya Austin, halting legal proceedings against her regarding alleged money laundering. The Attorney General's Office (FGR) had accused her of participating in the transfer of approximately 3.4 to 3.5 million dollars in bribes allegedly paid by Altos Hornos de México (AHMSA) to her brother, former Pemex director Emilio Lozoya Austin, to facilitate the acquisition of the Agronitrogenados fertilizer plant.

However, by August 24, 2026, a district judge denied a requested suspension regarding potential arrest warrants. Lozoya Austin had filed an amparo lawsuit, described as a “buscador,” to determine if the FGR had requested her arrest in connection with investigations into criminal association and illicit resource operations. This case is linked to the broader Odebrecht bribery scandal and the sale of Agronitrogenados to Pemex at an inflated price. Lozoya Austin maintains the right to appeal these decisions to a collegiate tribunal.
