AMLO Case Dropped

Mexico’s attorney general’s office dropped its case against Mexico City Mayor Andres Lopez Obrador, ending an attempt to bring criminal charges against the mayor that could have sabotaged his bid for the presidency. Lopez Obrador was accused of violating a court order when the city built an access road to a hospital. Hundreds of thousands of the mayor’s supporters protested weekly after congress voted April 7 to strip Lopez Obrador of his immunity from prosecution.
