Within this framework, the organization mentioned the Lava Jato case implicates ex-Heads of State, former officials, and political parties.
CNDDHH went on to add the people investigated by the Public Ministry have obstructed justice through their representations at Congress, as well as operators who work within the justice system.
Concerning
former President Alan Garcia's asylum request, the organization said it is not legal to grant asylum to people —who request it at the same time they have been accused or condemned by regular courts for common crimes.
