Overview

• Lawmakers approved four vacancy motions alleging permanent moral incapacity and then voted 118–0 to remove Boluarte.
• Congressional leader José Enrique Jerí Oré assumed the presidency by constitutional succession and said he will lead until the 2026 elections and July inauguration.
• Boluarte declined to appear to defend herself, while her lawyer condemned the proceedings as unconstitutional and lacking due process.
• The push gathered momentum after a wave of organized-crime attacks, including a shooting at an Agua Marina concert in Lima that injured band members.
• With her removal, Boluarte loses immunity and faces ongoing probes tied to alleged corruption, including the Rolexgate case, and investigations into protest repression as key right-wing blocs switched to back her ouster.
