Peruvian Judge Richard Concepcion Carhuancho was definitively
removed from the preparatory investigation against Fuerza Popular party leader Keiko Fujimori for money contributions transferred to her 2011 campaign, known as the "cocktails" case.
Such separation proceeds as the action for annulment of the recusal against
Concepcion Carhuancho —filed by prosecutor Rafael Vela— was declared inadmissible by the Second National Criminal Appeals Chamber.
On February 6, the request for recusal against the Second National Criminal Appeals Chamber, which removed the said judge from the investigation, was declared inadmissible by the First National Appeals Chamber.
Earlier, on January 15, magistrates Octavio Sahuanay, Jessica Leon and Ivan Quispe —of the Second Appeals Chamber— had declared the recusal against Concepcion Carhuancho founded.
Yoshiyama is accused of being a member of an alleged criminal organization inside Fuerza Popular and of allegedly receiving bribes from Brazilian construction giant Odebrecht during Keiko Fujimori's presidential campaign.
