Legal rulings in Peru and Bolivia

Overview

Legal proceedings in Peru and Bolivia have resulted in various judicial outcomes involving criminal activity and corruption.

In Peru, individuals were sentenced to 27 years in prison for aggravated robberies targeting retail stores in Piura. Separately, in Lambayeque, an appeals court modified sentences regarding contract irregularities at the Universidad Nacional Pedro Ruiz Gallo. The court acquitted a former legal counsel head and commuted the prison sentence of a businessman to community service for his role as an accomplice to simple collusion.

In Bolivia, the former operations chief of Banco Unión, Juan Pari Mamani, received a sentence of 22 years and six months for embezzling 37.6 million bolivianos. The fraud, occurring between 2016 and 2017, involved unauthorized system access to simulate ATM transfers, with funds allegedly laundered through luxury real estate and vehicle purchases.
