Peruvian President Dina Boluarte was interrogated by prosecutors for five hours as they investigate allegations of illegal enrichment involving cash, luxury watches, and jewelry. The probe, triggered by photos showing her wearing expensive watches and jewelry, has led to public outrage and protests. Boluarte, who became president in December 2022, has faced criticism for not declaring these assets and is highly unpopular among Peruvians. Despite the investigation, experts believe she may not face immediate consequences due to legal protections for sitting presidents.
