“The public prosecutors who defend the interests of the Peruvian State in the various processes, matters and competences that we are in charge of”, they point out in their trade.
Likewise, the attorneys who sign the document recall that “Although (the Attorney General’s Office) is an entity attached to the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, it is a new specialized public body that has functional, technical and administrative autonomy for the exercise of its functions.”
They also highlighted that “The attorney general and public attorneys act defending the interests of the State and its institutions. They are not defense attorneys for the government of the day or for the officials who temporarily direct the institutions and state bodies.
For the attorneys who reject what was announced by the head of the Minjus, the removal of Daniel Soria “It would become a violation of the principle of functional autonomy that they enjoy by law.”
Finally, they called on the authorities of the Executive Power “to respect the institutions of the State Attorney General’s Office and the public prosecutors.” “We express our support for the State Attorney General’s Office,” they sentenced.
