Before the Ninth Liquidating Criminal Chamber of the Lima Court, prosecutors requested that the accused pay S/38.22 million (US$10.52 million) in joint civil reparations.
Similarly, prosecutors requested the seizure of Toledo and Karp's accounts, both in Peru and abroad.
It is worth noting that the oral trial will resume on June 19 at 2:15 p.m. (local time).
Ecoteva case
The Ecoteva case came to light after the discovery of properties purchased for individuals close to Toledo, as well as large bank deposits made in Costa Rica to a company of the same name, which was registered under the name of Eva Fernenbug, the former president's mother-in-law.
The late businessman, Josef Maiman, who was once implicated in these proceedings, confirmed —through the plea bargain mechanism— that the funds deposited came from bribes paid to Toledo during his Presidency, and not from a pension Fernenbug received as a Holocaust survivor, as the former head of state had initially claimed.
The oral trial includes, in addition to Eliane Karp and her mother, businessman David Eskenazi, who is believed to have made the bank deposits, as well as brothers Avraham and Shai Dan On.
The former first lady is currently residing in Israel, where she also holds citizenship.
