INPE Moves 17 Piura Inmates to Higher-Security Prisons in Overnight Operation

The transfers target illicit coordination inside jails following an earlier escape under internal review.

Overview

  • INPE completed the relocation at 00:05 on October 21 under Resolución Directoral N.° 090-2025-INPE-DTP.
  • A 10-member GOES team from the Northern Regional Office in Chiclayo executed the operation.
  • Inmates were distributed to Cochamarca (Pasco), Chimbote, Huaraz, and Cañete, according to the official list.
  • The agency says the measure seeks to frustrate illicit acts and bolster order as part of a broader control push led by INPE president Iván Paredes Yataco.
  • The action follows the escape of Krisman Nizama Ponce and the removal of Piura’s director and subdirector, with internal affairs conducting administrative inquiries.
