The tarps that were placed this Thursday at three service stations in Monterrey, Nuevo León, have the legend: “Do not fill up here, the barrier with the prices at this gas station is blown up”, however, this does not prevent them from continuing to operate.
In Monterrey, Escalante Ruiz said: “This is a call and a recognition to the gasoline stations who heeded the request of President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo and adjusted their pricesbecause they go up and down their profit indicator”.
In addition, the attorney said that he carries out review visits at service stations in which minutes are drawn up to ask for documentation to justify the price increase, for which they are given a period of 24 hours to provide that data.
