Overview

• Renzo Reggiardo presented a national state of emergency proposal to President José Jerí during a meeting with more than 30 district mayors in Lima.
• The plan calls for temporary Armed Forces control of prisons to disrupt criminal operations coordinated from inside penal facilities.
• Additional measures include restricting motorcycle use during an emergency period and training municipal serenos for traffic and preventative patrol work to free police for specialized tasks.
• Reggiardo urged reactivating and expanding the municipal citizen security fund, citing a prior pledge to lift it to 600 million soles.
• He also proposed using facilities such as Lurigancho or the Dinoes base to hold foreigners with irregular status, as mayors underscored National Police resource constraints and stressed that the measures remain proposals.
