- The Sala Penal Permanente concluded the Nov. 17 appellate hearing and scheduled the decision’s public reading for Monday, Nov. 24 at 8:30 a.m.
- Judge César San Martín Castro presides over the panel that will decide whether to confirm, modify, or annul the verdict.
- In March 2025, a special Supreme Court chamber sentenced Daniel Salaverry to eight years in prison, five years’ disqualification from public office, 360 days-fine, and S/119,577 in civil damages.
- Execution of the sentence remains suspended pending the ruling, with conduct conditions that include monthly biometric check-ins, residence restrictions, and mandatory attendance to judicial and prosecutorial summons.
- Prosecutors allege misappropriation of congressional funds tied to representation weeks from November–December 2017 and January–March 2018, while Salaverry denies wrongdoing and portrays the case as politically driven.
