Overview
- Humala, through his lawyer, sent a carta notarial on Friday demanding immediate removal of the parody video and a public rectification while alleging possible aggravated defamation and calumny.
- Carlos Álvarez says he has not received the notice, defended his 15‑year‑old character 'Antauro Fumala' and publicly refused to take the video down.
- The sketch shows Álvarez as 'Fumala' smoking marijuana and satirically links Humala to claims about votes, threats to police and alleged ties between some Juntos por el Perú figures and Movadef.
- The carta notarial warns it could lead to a criminal complaint seeking custodial penalties and damages, but no formal lawsuit or criminal filing has been reported so far.
- The episode has prompted wide media and social debate, with editorials calling Humala intolerant of satire and observers saying his 2005 Andahuaylazo conviction and past footage of drug use make the dispute especially charged.
