Sheinbaum Seeks Full Probe of Interoceanic Train Derailment, Says Bobby López Beltrán Had Honorary Role

A pending preliminary report from federal prosecutors will guide reparations.

Overview

  • President Claudia Sheinbaum said the Attorney General’s Office should investigate all individuals linked to the train’s operation for possible responsibility.
  • She stated that Gonzalo “Bobby” López Beltrán’s participation was honorary rather than technical, indicating he is not technically responsible for the accident.
  • Sheinbaum said no separate complaint is required because a case file is automatically opened after such accidents and will be reviewed based on the cause.
  • She emphasized that engineers oversaw the project’s technical supervision and could bear responsibility if track or construction issues are identified.
  • Initial reports cite 14 deaths and at least a dozen injuries, and authorities expect the first causation report to shape accountability and full compensation.
