Martín Vizcarra, ex-Peru president, was just sentenced for corruption linked to his time as governor. Still a key figure in Peru’s politics.
Peruvian ex-president Pedro Castillo was sentenced to nine years in prison and barred from public office for two years, after being convicted of corruption related to awarding contracts during his tenure as governor. Castillo, who was in custody since December 2022, plans to appeal. His former ministers also received prison sentences.
