Investigative Reports Say Pedro Castillo’s Sister on Chosica Payroll Attended Protests During Work Hours

Cuarto Poder cites a contract signed by Mayor Oswaldo Vargas to document the municipal hire.

Overview

  • Irma Castillo Terrones has worked since June as an administrative coordinator in Lurigancho–Chosica’s education and culture suboffice with a monthly salary of S/4,000.
  • Cuarto Poder recorded her outside the Barbadillo prison on November 21 and 27 participating in demonstrations calling for her brother’s release during scheduled work hours.
  • When reporters visited her assigned office in Cajamarquilla, staff said she was working in the field and said they had not seen her at the desk.
  • Her contract was authorized by Oswaldo Vargas Cuéllar, a Juntos por el Perú member, with reports noting she had no prior record as a state supplier and alleging she is not registered as a licensed accountant.
  • The coverage also identifies other party figures, including Analí Márquez Huanca, as municipal service contractors who joined the protests, and it cites no announced sanctions to date.
