Dina Boluarte was sworn in as Peru’s first woman president on Wednesday — hours after her predecessor Pedro Castillo was arrested following his ouster from office in an impeachment trial.
Peru’s Public Ministry said in a statement Castillo is being investigated for the crimes of “rebellion” and “conspiracy” in breach of the constitutional order after he announced he was dissolving Congress as lawmakers debated whether to impeach him.
Congressional members voted to remove Castillo from office.
