PERU: Government rocked by new scandal
It has been another week of scandal for Peru’s government after a local journalist accused the interior ministry of plotting to attack her as a reprisal for a report into President Dina Boluarte’s brother, Nicanor, and Justice Minister Juan José Santiváñez. Already under investigation as an alleged member of the ‘Waykis en la Sombra’ corruption ring, Nicanor’s house was raided by prosecutors on 27 August. Local media reported that the raid was part of a new probe into Nicanor and Santiváñez, who has returned to government after being impeached as interior minister in March.
