Police in Peru have searched the home of the country’s current leader, Dina Boluarte, as part of an investigation dubbed “Rolexgate”.
The case came to light after journalists drew attention to a luxury watch worn by the politician at public events. A spokesman for the controlling agency said it would examine Boluarte’s asset declarations for the past two years.
It’s a good thing to see that the police weren’t afraid to make a raid on an acting politician. That shows that there is a healthy level of independence and that they mustn’t be too corrupt.
