Overview
- INPE president Iván Paredes Yataco announced that inmates held at the Base Naval del Callao will be relocated to the Ancón II prison.
- The transfer covers Vladimiro Montesinos, Óscar Ramírez Durand (“Feliciano”), Florindo Eleuterio Flores Hala (“Artemio”) and Víctor Polay Campos.
- INPE said the prisoners will remain under the CEREC DS N°. 024-2001-JUS regime, which provides continuous surveillance and control that will be applied at Ancón II.
- Paredes stated the CEREC at the Base Naval will cease operations on January 12, 2026 following a brief extension of an agreement that had been set to lapse in August.
- Authorities framed the decision as reaffirming state authority and public security, noting Ancón II already houses former senior officials, with coordination underway with municipal and regional bodies.
