Overview
- INPE conducted high‑impact searches at the Mujeres Chorrillos and Ancón II prisons under the expanded State of Emergency to disrupt extortion networks.
- Teams seized cellphones, SIM cards, notebooks of contacts, more than 50 watches, cutting tools, improvised wiring, and an electric resistor known as an omicron device.
- The Fiscalía Especializada en Prevención del Delito monitored the interventions to verify transparency and proper procedure.
- Prime Minister Ernesto Álvarez said the Executive has submitted a request for delegated legislative powers that includes an absolute reorganization of INPE.
- Álvarez noted Interior and Defense are considering withdrawing confidence from INPE chief Iván Paredes, who remains under an anticorruption probe, as the Justice Ministry limits initial polygraph testing to frontline staff at Lurigancho, Castro Castro, and Sarita Colonia.
