Overview
- The government granted the rank for acción distinguida via a supreme resolution signed by President José Jerí and published in the legal bulletin, directing the PNP’s Executive Secretariat to execute the measure.
- Revoredo leads the new Divinext unit, which police reports credit with dismantling roughly 16 extortion gangs in Lima and Callao within about six weeks.
- Interior Minister Vicente Tiburcio defended the decision as recognition of more than 30 years of service, highlighting an unacknowledged armed confrontation in Huacho.
- Reports note ongoing risks around Revoredo, including death threats, a prosecution claim that Wanda del Valle ordered his assassination, and a torture complaint under evaluation.
- Alongside Revoredo, the Executive promoted multiple colonels to general with differing counts reported, and officials say a new national security plan will be presented in January 2026.
