Overview
- Anti-corruption Judge Carlos Lindo Yajamanco ordered the three held for nine months in the Piura penal facility based on grave indications and procedural risk.
- Those detained are Major Francy Duggar Barzola Álvarez, subofficer Richard Junior Cherres Antón and subofficer Andy Luis Llenque Suclupe for alleged passive bribery.
- The case stems from a January 10 intervention in Sullana of a Dong Feng pickup that appeared with a capture order tied to a Santander Perú Consumo debt.
- The vehicle’s owner later presented a court resolution lifting the order, a no‑debt letter and proof of payment, yet police allegedly conditioned the return on S/5,000.
- The request was filed by provincial prosecutor Luis Ramos Rioja and substantiated by deputy prosecutor Harold Martínez Requena, who cited a likely sentence above five years if guilt is proven.
