Pedro Castillo was sentenced to over 11 years in prison for rebellion after his failed attempt to dissolve Congress and rule by decree.
At least 19 people, including a police officer, have been injured during protests against the government of Peruvian President Dina Boluarte and Congress, according to authorities and human rights advocates. Hundreds of people marched over the weekend towards the seats of government in central Lima, under a heavy police presence. Groups of young people threw stones, petrol bombs and fireworks at law enforcement, who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets.
