Fox’s home makeover sparks probe
From Times Wire Reports
Mexico’s lower house of Congress said it would open a probe into the finances of former President Vicente Fox after a magazine spread on his swanky country home sparked questions.

Fox, a conservative whose term ended in December 2006, has denied wrongdoing.
