Durante la tercera sesión del juicio en contra del expresidente Pedro Castillo por el golpe de Estado, la sala dio por acreditado al abogado de la defensa pública Ricardo Jhony Hernández Medina como nuevo defensor del profesor. Esto luego de que se conociera que el abogado de la defensa pública, Edgar Calle, asignado en la audiencia anterior, pidió su cambio por “el resquebrajamiento de la confianza recíproca entre abogado y patrocinado”
The oral trial against former President Pedro Castillo for the 2022 coup d'état will continue this Friday, with the court summoning four new witnesses from the Public Ministry. The session will be held in the Supreme Court's hearing room, with testimonies expected from Fernando Aliaga, Roberto Wong, Eduardo Guerrero, and Nelly Torres. Former Minister Willy Huerta refused to testify, while Castillo was absent from a prior session due to hospitalization. A new public defender was assigned to Castillo after the previous one requested to be removed due to a breakdown in trust, though Castillo maintains he does not accept a public defender.
