Flor Polo Seeks Tenfold Child-Support Increase From Néstor Villanueva in New Court Filing

The case highlights Peru’s enforcement tools for unpaid child support, from exit bans to possible criminal referral.

Overview

  • The petition, filed Thursday at the La Molina magistrate’s court, asks to raise monthly support from S/1,000 to S/10,000, or S/5,000 per child.
  • Her lawyer, Ysrael Castillo, says the children’s costs have risen for school fees, transport, food, supplies, workshops, and a 12‑hour caregiver.
  • Polo’s team requested a fresh court calculation of unpaid amounts for May 2024 through June 2025, estimating about S/14,000 after an earlier S/6,586.45 was approved.
  • The lawyer says Villanueva is under a ban on leaving Peru and plans to take a nonpayment complaint to the Public Ministry for possible omission of family support.
  • TV program América Hoy displayed parts of the filing on air, and Villanueva told a reporter he would wait to speak with his attorney before commenting.
