The former president Martin Vizcarra has requested to the Supreme Court that the 68 assets seized by the Prosecutor’s Office in a raid on his home in San Isidro on March 18 for allegedly being the leader of the criminal network called ‘The Untouchables of Corruption’. Vizcarra argues that these seized assets have already been used as part of the investigation, so he requests that they be returned to him. This diligence was directed by the Illicit Enrichment and Constitutional Complaints team.
“Through the letter received on 10/04/2024, by the affected Martín Alberto Vizcarra Cornejo, he requests this judiciary to order the prosecution to return sixty-eight (68) seized assets, as a consequence of the execution of the measure of search and others, ordered by Resolution No. 01 of 03/15/2024, carried out at the home on 03/18/2024, as they had already been used for the investigative activity,” the document reads.
