Regarding the requirements for promotions, Bueno Victoriano stated that the changes in the process were made without any technical support, giving the personal interview -which lasts five minutes- a weight of 50% in the total rating.
After that, congressmen from various groups demanded an exhaustive investigation regarding the alleged irregularities that arose in the last process of promotions to general in the PNPin order to punish those found responsible.
In this regard, the chairman of the working group, José Williams Zapata (Avanza País), considered that it is important to review the directive of the PNP promotion process because it would have been changed without any technical support.
“We are going to review that directive of the promotion process that has to do with the 50 points that are awarded as a score for the interviews. This is strange because promotions are given based on a series of neutral concepts. That directive is not working well.”, He said.
For his part, Jorge Montoya Manrique (Popular Renovation) stated that it is necessary for the Defense Commission constitute a ad hoc working group for the elaboration of a new law of promotions of the PNP with character of permanent.
Meanwhile, parliamentarian Alfredo Azurín Loayza (Somos Perú) considered that the powers of an investigative commission should be requested from the Plenary of Congress, in order to investigate the alleged irregularities in the last promotion process in the PNP.
“What is happening in the PNP is an open secret, with all this a pernicious and dirty system is created that harms the institution. None of those who visited the Palace should be holding their positions now. We have to identify these people so that the full weight of the law falls on them”, sentenced.
