Sources: 18. Developments: 2. Television host Magaly Medina has faced legal consequences following a defamation lawsuit filed by former footballer Luis ‘Cuto’ Guadalupe. The Second Unipersonal Criminal Court of Lima sentenced Medina to three years of suspended prison and a fine of approximately S/57,216.50 for aggravated defamation regarding comments made about Guadalupe’s personal life in 2023. The ruling included conduct restrictions, such as prohibitions on leaving the country without authorization. The legal situation evolved as former footballer Jefferson Farfán petitioned the Judiciary to revoke Medina’s ability to serve her sentence through community service. A new judicial hearing has been scheduled for November 12 to address these claims. The 39th Preparatory Investigation Court of Lima, overseen by Judge Sandra Elizabeth Mori Saavedra, has requested a report from the National Penitentiary Institute (INPE) to investigate alleged irregularities regarding the community service hours completed by Medina and her producer at a parish. In response to these developments, Medina has reflected on her 2008 imprisonment involving a case related to Paolo Guerrero. She expressed concerns regarding the fairness of judicial processes and the potential for similar injustices to occur in her current legal dispute with Farfán. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-16: Magaly Medina faces new hearing over Jefferson Farfán legal dispute Magaly Medina faces a November 12 hearing as Jefferson Farfán seeks to revoke her community service sentence benefit due to alleged irregularities in her completed duties. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/magaly-medina-faces-new-judicial-hearing-in-dispute-with-jefferson-farfn ### 2026-09-28: Magaly Medina sentenced in defamation case against Cuto Guadalupe Magaly Medina received a three-year suspended prison sentence for defamation against Luis 'Cuto' Guadalupe.
