Peru's Political Crisis Deepens: President's Brother and Lawyer Arrested

The arrests are part of a broader corruption probe involving alleged influence peddling and the dismantling of a key police unit.

Dina Boluarte's presidency faces increased scrutiny after her brother and lawyer were detained over corruption charges.
Authorities are investigating the alleged use of presidential influence to secure personal benefits, including luxury watches.
The government's decision to disband a police unit investigating these matters has sparked concerns of judicial interference.
Recent events are part of a pattern of political instability in Peru, with Boluarte being the sixth president since 2018.
Public trust in the government is waning, with Boluarte's approval rating plummeting amid ongoing national protests.
