Overview

• Podemos Perú said its Ethics and Discipline Secretariat has opened a proceeding into Kira Alcarraz’s conduct and issued a statement rejecting threats against the press.
• The incident followed a Willax TV report alleging Alcarraz placed Diana Alani De la Cruz, her son’s partner, as coordinator of her congressional office without accredited qualifications.
• During the exchange recorded by Willax, Alcarraz directed intimidating language at reporter Marycielo del Castillo, including a remark about slamming her against a wall.
• Alcarraz acknowledged she proposed De la Cruz as trusted staff and argued that congressional Human Resources validates whether candidates meet the required profiles.
• The internal review is ongoing, and the allegations about the hiring and qualifications remain reported by media but unproven in any formal inquiry.
