Peru: President's brother sentenced to pre-trial detention DW 11/20/2024
Briefly

A judge has ordered the detention of President Dina Boluarte's brother, Nicanor, for up to three years amid an investigation into influence peddling and bribery.
The court deemed Nicanor Boluarte a flight risk due to 'a high degree of probability' that he participated in alleged crimes connected to his sister's administration.
While Dina Boluarte's popularity has reached historic lows, she insists on her innocence regarding accusations of corruption linked to her brother and the ongoing workplace scandals.
Amid various controversies, including a recent confidence vote survival, Boluarte faces scrutiny for her role in the deaths during protests, further affecting her government's stability.
