The Prosecutor for Domain Extinction at this time the properties in Lima that the former Odebrecht, the Brazilian Jorge Baratahe transferred in 2018 his daughters Daniela and Gabriela when he managed his effective collaboration agreement with Peruvian justice.
The diligence is led by prosecutor Renzo Cayro Armejo. These are four properties, between departments, parking and deposits, located in a condominium of the San Isidro district, and whose added value amounts to US $ 613,000.
The reason for this intervention is because prosecutor Cayro has established that the goods were acquired with illicit money.
Barata is the main death of the Lava Jato case, who acknowledged before the Public Ministry that the Brazilian construction company paid millionaire to Peruvian officials to award public works.
However, although the businessman had achieved criminal benefits because of the treatment he closed with Peruvian prosecutors in 2018, in 2024 the effective collaborator declared himself in rebellion and rejected to participate in judicial hearings, such as that of former President Ollanta Humala, despite the fact that he was bound by the agreement.
Odebrecht’s former director claimed, on the one hand, that by orders from Judges in Brazil he was prevented from sharing information. On the other hand, his lawyer César Nakazaki demanded that the appropriate procedures were not being fulfilled to collect the declaration of his sponsor.
Prosecutor José Domingo Pérez, a member of the Special Lava Jato team, requested the revocation of criminal benefits and last year the Judiciary accessed in the first instance.
But in November 2024, the Third Criminal Appeals Chamber annulled that first decision and restored the original terms, which in summary provided that Cheap could not be prosecuted.
The exexecutive has not participated again in judgments, so he must define his legal situation with the Peruvian authorities. And, meanwhile, Brazil suspended all international cooperation with its Peruvian peers before Odebrecht’s request for alleged violations of the agreement.
