Overview

• Congress’s Subcommittee on Constitutional Accusations admitted the fiscal complaint by Delia Espinoza against Martín Vizcarra for alleged instigation and collusion, with the case now headed to the Permanent Commission to set an investigation timeline.
• The subcommittee’s report, approved unanimously by 13 votes, cites alleged irregular appointments and an illegal US$100,000 contribution arrangement to the Peruanos por el Kambio campaign involving a company from the Club de la Construcción.
• Judge Víctor Alcocer of the Fifth National Preparatory Investigation Court rescheduled the control-of-accusation hearing to Friday, September 26, in the collusion case tied to Vizcarra’s tenure in Moquegua.
• The court rejected Vizcarra’s statute-of-limitations claim, ruling that the prescriptive term is doubled for crimes against the State’s patrimony.
• Prosecutors allege S/2.3 million in bribes from Obrainsa and ICCGSA linked to the Lomas de Ilo and Moquegua Hospital projects and separately seek a 15-year sentence in a passive bribery case, while the Susana Villarán oral trial is set to open on September 23 at 9:00 a.m. in the Carlos Zavala Loayza building with a 29-year sentence request.
