Surco Partially Demolishes House Linked to Congresswoman María Acuña to Reclaim Public Land

The district says contested structures await a court ruling after marking the recovered boundary.

Overview

  • Municipal crews executed a pre-dawn operation in Los Álamos, Monterrico, partially demolishing the three-story residence tied to María Acuña.
  • Police and Serenazgo escorted workers as prefabricated muretes were installed to delineate the area identified as public space.
  • The municipality says the terrain was recovered despite a brief attempt by people at the site to block the demolition.
  • Mayor Carlos Bruce stated that additional demolition is on hold because remaining structures are subject to an ongoing judicial process.
  • A report cited by local media estimated the encroachment at about 118 square meters; the property is registered to Inmobiliaria Los Alizos EIRL, and Acuña disputes any invasion, citing a prior agreement with neighbors.
