Overview

• Presidencia del Consejo de Ministros criticized the request, warning the Fiscalía cannot place itself above the Constitution or decide which parties may compete in 2026.
• Delia Espinoza called the Executive’s statement a politicization of justice and accused it of interfering with prosecutorial autonomy, noting a similar filing was made last year against A.N.T.A.U.R.O.
• The 300‑plus‑page petition alleges a sustained antidemocratic strategy by Fuerza Popular, citing links to La Resistencia, coordinated protests at workplaces and homes, threats, hate campaigns and pressure tactics.
• Fuerza Popular’s secretary‑general Luis Galarreta rejected any ties to violent groups, labeled the move political and argued the alleged conduct does not meet Article 14’s criteria.
• The Fiscalía says the case stems from a citizen complaint filed in March 2025, as separate JNJ proceedings concerning Espinoza provide contentious institutional context.
