The President of the Republic Dina Boluarte on Monday participated in the ceremony to commemorate Male and Female Judges' Day.

This event took place at the Palace of Justice in the Peruvian capital, Lima.

Through Decree Law No. 18918, enacted in 1971, it was determined that every August 4 be commemorated as "Judges' Day", recalling that on August 4, 1821, General Jose de San Martin established the High Chamber of Justice in the city of Lima to replace the Royal Audience of Spain.

Therefore, every August 4, our country celebrates "Judges' Day," an occasion on which the work of magistrates is recognized for their contribution to the administration and dispensation of justice, as well as to the progress of the legal culture in Peru.
