In an interview with the Sunday newspaper “Panorama”, President Dina Boluarte pointed out that, days ago, Foreign Minister Ana Cecilia Gervasi informed her that the Government of Mexico, chaired by Andrés Manuel López Obrador, granted political asylum to the immediate family of the ousted ex-president Pedro Castillo: his wife, Lilia Paredes, and their children. This asylum does not include the former president.
According to Boluarte, given this scenario, he ordered that it proceed as established in the legal framework. When asked if the investigations that weigh on the former first lady would be an impediment for her to access Mexican asylum, the president stated that, according to what Foreign Minister Gervasi expressed, the fiscal files of Lilia Paredes “would not have why interfere in the subject of a possible asylum”.
