MEXICO CITY, Feb 3 (Reuters) - The chairman of a leading Mexican steelmaker arrived back in his homeland from Spain on Wednesday afternoon to face corruption charges, Mexican officials said.
Alonso Ancira, chairman of the board at Altos Hornos de Mexico (AHMSA), was detained in Spain in 2019 as the Mexican government probed allegations of corruption within state oil company Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex).
Interior Minister Olga Sanchez said on Wednesday morning he was being extradited from Spain, and two Mexican officials familiar with the matter later said the plane transporting him had landed in Mexico City in the afternoon.
