Peru’s Comptroller Launches Post-Audit of Stalled Miguel Grau Stadium Overhaul in Piura

The move follows the contractor’s exit with just 1.64% progress despite more than S/3 million already paid.

Overview

  • Rehabilitation began on June 12, 2025, for a project valued at about S/192 million that had been slated to finish in 2026.
  • The review will determine whether officials face administrative, civil or criminal liability after the contract was terminated.
  • Contractor Consorcio EPiura cites deficiencies in the technical file from the outset, a problem the comptroller suggested reflects planning flaws.
  • The stadium has been unusable for over ten years, leaving Piura without its main venue as the upgrade remains halted.
  • During the visit, auditors also flagged a crisis at José Cayetano Heredia Hospital linked to an SIS debt above S/86 million and critical equipment shortages.
