Overview
- Peru’s National Jury of Elections scheduled a public hearing on Dec. 5 to review Congress President Fernando Rospigliosi’s appeal of a JEE Pacasmayo ruling over a congressional camera seen at Keiko Fujimori’s rally in Trujillo.
- The JEE accepted the appeal after verifying formal requirements and sent the case to the JNE, which will issue the final administrative decision to confirm or overturn the earlier resolution.
- Rospigliosi’s defense attributes the camera’s presence to an “involuntary” operator error rather than an order from his office.
- Separately, JEE Lima Centro 1 opened an investigation into President José Jerí for televised remarks in November that were favorable to Somos Perú, citing a fiscalization report that also notes his continued party affiliation.
- The Jerí file was elevated to the JEE plenary to decide whether to initiate a sanctioning procedure, with potential administrative penalties or referral to prosecutors if legal indicators emerge.
