The real estate entrepreneur Sada Goray Chong must return the State land that it bought for US$18 million and then resold to the Centennial Group for US$47.6 million.
Sada Goray confessed that he paid a bribe of S / 4 million to the former head of the advisory cabinet of the Ministry of Housing Salatiel Marrufo Alcántara to obtain resolutions from the National Superintendence of State Assets (SBN) that falsely recognized her as the owner of a 90-hectare property in Chilca, south of Lima.
After taking advantage of the effective collaboration, the Salatiel Marrufo admitted the illegal payment from sada goray to pressure SBN officials in order to issue resolutions for the benefit of the businesswoman during the government of former President Pedro Castillo.
As part of the illicit agreement, The SBN hired Flor Olivera Orellana as an “external advisor” to issue a “technical opinion” in favor of Sada Goray. Flor Olivera is a lawyer and partner of Goray.
Finished the regimen Pedro Castillo and renewed the administration of the National Superintendency of State Assets, the entity reversed the decision to grant the 90 hectares to the businesswoman.
The SBN reported that last december 23 the cancellation of the delivery of the land was ordered, divided into two properties. Which means that it became part of the State again.

The story started when sada goray and their partners acquired a 90-hectare piece of land located in Chilca for US$18 million in 2019 and shortly thereafter resold it to Grupo Centenario for US$47.6 million.
It was apparently a successful business, but there was a problemThe land belongs to the State. There are even two court rulings that confirm this. For this reason, the Centennial Group demanded that the businesswoman resolve the conflict in order to pay her.
When I was the general manager of the real estate company Marka Groupin August 2021, Sada Goray met Salatiel Marrufo. At that time, said firm was trying to get the MiVivienda Fund, from the Ministry of Housing, to qualify it as a provider company to participate in the Techo Propio projects.
In exchange for bribery payments, Salatiel Marrufo, right arm of the former Minister of Housing Geiner Alvarado Lopez, succeeded in satisfying the request sada goray.
But apart from problem with the MiVivienda Fund, the businesswoman faced the obstacle that the SBN refused to recognize her as the owner of 90 hectares in Chilca, where she and her partners were planning a real estate megaproject. So she turned again to Salatiel Marrufo, to whom he also gave a residence valued at S/3.8 million as part of the bribe.
As the latter recounted to the Prosecutor’s Office on October 23 of this year, despite asking the superintendent of the SBN, Cynthia Rudas, to take care of the issue, the entity’s technicians pointed out that it was impossible to meet Sada Goray’s demand because the property belonged to the State. For this reason, four directors of Patrimonial Management of the SBN in charge of reviewing the case were fired for not complying with the request.
When Salatiel Marrufo told Sada Goray that the SBN did not accept her request because it was unfeasible, the businesswoman told her that a lawyer knew about the case and that she believed it was feasible.
Thus, the SBN hired as an external advisor Flor Olivera Orellanapartner of the businesswoman in the real estate company Nuevo Chiclayo.

On April 6, 2022, the new director of Patrimonial Management of the SBNMarina Subiría Franco, using Flor Olivera’s “technical report”, granted Sada Goray the possibility of keeping the Chilca land.
Then, with a new technical report from Olivera, on June 8, the SBN finally granted him the property.
Of the 90 hectares, the Centenario Group first bought 30 hectares for US$15 million and a second part of 60 hectares for US$32.6 million. “Grupo Centenario came to pay sada goray for the first part,” the company said.
