Overview
- On December 17, the Third Superior Court for Preparatory Investigation in Lima granted the Public Ministry’s request for dismissal and ordered a definitive archive of the case.
- The court lifted all coercive and confidentiality measures imposed during the probe and returned the file to the prosecutor’s office, formally ending the criminal process.
- Three forensic accounting reviews were conducted, with an initial suspected imbalance later overturned by a final analysis showing income and expenses aligned and a favorable balance.
- The Supreme Court narrowed the evaluation window to January 1, 2014 through March 8, 2021, during which banking, tax and securities records were examined.
- The Public Ministry said there was no reasonable prospect of new evidence and the Public Prosecutor’s Office did not oppose, and the case can only be reopened if materially new proof emerges.
