Overview

• Judge Juan Torres Tasso held a virtual hearing on Delia Espinoza’s amparo seeking to nullify the JNJ resolution that restored Patricia Benavides, with Espinoza, Benavides’s defense and the JNJ participating.
• Espinoza argued the JNJ violated her constitutional rights and said yielding the post would have breached the law, as coverage also notes she opened a preliminary probe into President Dina Boluarte on the eve of her suspension.
• Interim fiscal de la Nación Tomás Gálvez reversed earlier remarks and confirmed José Domingo Pérez will remain on the Lava Jato team, citing the active Villarán trial and the need for stability, and said ongoing probes of government figures will proceed.
• Gálvez issued formal reassignment orders, moving Marcial Páucar to a cybercrime unit, sending Hernán Mendoza to support Rafael Vela in the anti‑corruption team, and placing Luis Arturo Ballón Segovia in the First Supreme Criminal Prosecutor’s Office.
• Gálvez met Congressional leader José Jerí and PCM chief Eduardo Arana to seek funding after recent and projected budget cuts of S/81 million in 2025 and S/145 million in 2026, drawing scrutiny over the Fiscalía’s autonomy.
