Overview

  • The inquiry stems from Informe No. 006-2026-GATRP-JNJ, which references denuncia No. 1736-2025-JNJ filed by citizen Luis Miguel Caya Salazar alleging misuse of state assets.
  • According to the report, Espinoza allegedly used two Ministerio Público vehicles with plates EGW-711 and EGW-715 after her suspension took effect on September 19, 2025 under Resolution No. 143-2025-PLENO-JNJ.
  • The JNJ says the preliminary stage will assess possible misuse of public resources and whether the conduct conflicted with duties of the prosecutorial office during a suspension period.
  • Espinoza was removed as supreme prosecutor on January 23, 2026 after a disciplinary process tied in part to her failure to promptly reinstate former prosecutor general Patricia Benavides.
  • The former official also contends with a separate congressional 10-year disqualification and is pursuing court actions to challenge sanctions already imposed.
