Overview
- The Municipality of San Juan de Miraflores, in coordination with the Lima Sur Prosecutor’s Office, ordered a temporary closure citing infraction No. 2.94 for noncompliance with the National Electrical Code.
- The inspection led by prosecutor Ricardo Walter López García identified exposed electrical cables along with refrigeration maintenance failures, rusted metal structures, inadequate installations and missing safety signage.
- Officials described the action as preventive, with reopening contingent on fully correcting the deficiencies and proving compliance through required technical documentation and inspections.
- The shutdown disrupted operations for retailers and visitors, prompting complaints about cinema tickets, purchase pickups and other planned activities.
- Some outlets reported the mall’s social posts claiming service resumed on December 2, a development not yet validated by municipal or prosecutorial authorities.
