Overview
- The National Board of Justice declined to reinstate Delia Espinoza despite a Lima constitutional court order directing her return to the post.
- Espinoza condemned the decision as illegal and accused the board of acting as judge and party in disciplinary proceedings against her.
- She asserted that only six board members advanced the case after magistrate Francisco Távara was removed through what she calls an improper inhibition.
- Espinoza alleged that Congress is shielding the board by shelving her complaints while accelerating cases to disqualify her as retaliation.
- Her attorney, Luciano López, said they will petition the Ninth Constitutional Court judge who issued the order to compel compliance.
