The money collected, according to the Public Ministry, went to Castillo’s campaign and also served to buy the party’s premises located on Avenida Brasil, in Lima. Peru21 revealed the irregular management that existed for the acquisition of the property.

To make this request, prosecutor Rojas previously formalized the preparatory investigation of the case. Included in the investigation are Congressman Waldemar Cerrón, brother of Vladimir, and his colleague Guido Bellido, who recently resigned from Peru Libre.
