Ilich López, a Popular Action (AP) congressman for Junín, has gone from calling himself “the good López” to being investigated by the Public Prosecutor’s Office for alleged influence peddling in a criminal network. This has brought him rejection in his own party. The regional secretary of the lampa in Junín, Javier Poma, pointed out that they are evaluating a temporary suspension if López does not give the releases that have been requested from Junín.

WAITING. “We have sent him a letter so that he can be present but he did not do it, we are going to send the second letter next week so that he can discharge himself, otherwise the procedure would be a temporary suspension until he disclaims all responsibility,” he said in dialogue with Mail.
CONCERNED. According to Poma, the suspension does not require the approval of the AP national committee since the region is autonomous in its decisions. “As a departmental executive committee we are autonomous. Therefore we are going to make our rights prevail and at the same time Ilich López is due to the department of Junín, he is registered in the department of Junín and we are the leadership of the department”, he added.
Finally, the regional representative lamented that because of the congressman from Junin, Acción Popular has ended up being singled out as an ally of the government and part of a network of corruption: “He has discredited us, people pretend to say that we are involved with him, we have nothing to do with the decisions he makes, he does not represent us in Acción Popular”, he concluded.

CASE. López Ureña is being investigated for alleged favoring in tenders granted by the Government to Chinese companies, in the framework of the investigation of the Puente Tarata III case. The name “Los Niños” was mentioned by lobbyist Karelim López.
According to an effective collaborator, the Popular Action congressmen would allegedly be linked to the company INIP Engineering Integration of Projects SAC, which would have associated with China Civil Engineering Construction and China Camc Engineering CO to win millionaire tenders from 2021.
