Overview
- The National Prosecutor’s Office, which closed the case Monday, also erased the case’s digital entry and found no basis for a constitutional complaint.
- The raise was formalized on July 4, 2025 by Supreme Decree 136-2025‑EF, lifting the presidential salary from S/15,600 to S/35,568.
- Prosecutors traced the paperwork to March 2024, when the Presidential Office asked SERVIR, the civil service authority, to approve its job chart, undercutting claims of a rushed 2025 push.
- Investigators applied the Civil Service Law (Law 30057) and noted 2025 budget‑law exceptions, so the cap in Law 28212 that ties the pay to 10 public pay units—about S/26,000—did not control this case.
- Statements from SERVIR and Economy Ministry officials said each step followed the rules, and the prosecutor wrote that any personal benefit to Boluarte was not enough to allege a crime.
