Overview
- The JNJ restored Luis Carlos Arce Córdova’s title as supreme prosecutor and nullified the inscription of his prior dismissal.
- The plenary decision was taken unanimously on December 3 and was published with the signature of JNJ president Gino Ríos.
- The action implements a ruling from the Second Transitory Constitutional Court of Lima that ordered Arce’s reinstatement.
- The JNJ notified interim Attorney General Tomás Gálvez to take the administrative steps for Arce’s return to the Junta de Fiscales Supremos, with formal reincorporation due the next business day after notification.
- Arce’s earlier removal stemmed from cases linked to audios with ex-judge César Hinostroza and his 2021 resignation from the JNE, and the reinstatement coincides with Congress’s December 3 vote to disqualify Delia Espinoza for ten years.
