Peru Ombudsman defends fugitive Vladimir Cerrón, justifies evasion of justice

Peru's Ombudsman Josué Gutiérrez has publicly defended the evasion of justice by individuals who believe they are unfairly sentenced, specifically referencing Vladimir Cerrón, which directly challenges the rule of law. This stance is in direct opposition to the Peruvian National Police's stated efforts to apprehend Cerrón, whose continued evasion despite multiple raids and active social media presence raises questions about the effectiveness of law enforcement operations. The situation indicates deepening institutional polarization and a significant challenge to judicial authority within Peru.
