The former president, Dina Boluartefinally came out to the door of her home to give brief statements to the press after being vacated by the Congress of the Republic for “permanent moral incapacity.”
“To the media that announced that she was missing, or that she had sought asylum. None of that is true. I am at home. Today I have been resting accordingly,” Boluarte said alongside his lawyer Juan Carlos Portugal.
“It is not in me nor do I have the slightest thought of leaving the country. So much so that having lived seven years abroad, I have returned to the homeland because it has always been in my heart to serve Peru,” he added.
As is known, since early morning nothing was known about the former president, who after receiving notification of her vacancy from Congress, retired to her home located in the district of Surquillo.
Even an official from the Judicial Branch who came to his house to deliver a notification was not attended to and was forced to post the document on his door. Finally, in the afternoon, the former president came to the door and also referred to the judicial processes that are still being followed.
“I am clear with my conscience. Those cases that are in the Public Ministry, I am not responsible for any of them. I am in my home and I will be here permanently,” he said.
With 122 votes, Congress managed to vacate Dina Boluarte, a fact that led the then president of the Board of Directors, José Jerí, to assume the position of president of the Republic.
