APP retira a Óscar Acuña de lista de precandidatos al Congreso tras ser acusado de recibir coima de Frigoinca

Overview

  • Óscar Acuña, brother of APP leader César Acuña and the party’s regional coordinator in La Libertad, was taken off the congressional pre-candidate slate.
  • A media investigation cites a cooperating witness who alleges Frigoinca routed S/77,000 to Acuña between September and December 2023 to sway regional inspections.
  • The reported deposits were made in sums of S/5,000, S/7,000, S/30,000, S/20,000, and S/15,000 to a Banco de Crédito del Perú account and are linked to businessman Nilo Burga Malca.
  • Acuña acknowledged receiving the money but described it as a personal loan used for administrative expenses that he says has already been repaid.
  • The report situates the claims within a broader alleged corruption network tied to the La Libertad regional government and APP figures, with no formal criminal charges disclosed in the coverage.
