While the president was meeting with the regional prefects, the Public Ministry announced his summons for next Monday, June 13, for the Puente Tarata III case.

In the investigation of the Public Ministry, the president is the leader of a criminal organization entrenched in the MTC, in complicity with former minister Juan Silva, to favor companies with the granting of the good pro. Along these lines, the president is being investigated for the alleged crimes of influence peddling and aggravated collusion.
Although the president has not yet ruled on this investigation, the one who did was Alfredo Yalán, former minister Juan Silva’s lawyer, who reported that his client will not attend the call from the Public Ministry, scheduled for this Monday, the 6th. The legal representative justified the omission in saying in RPP that the former head of the MTC “has not been notified of that procedure.”
