What Happened

Peruvian police raided homes of election officials including former ONPE head Piero Corvetto following delays in the April 12 presidential election results. As of Friday, final results remained unpublished despite EU observers finding no fraud evidence. Officers seized phones, laptops, and documents from six officials and a ballot transport company. Corvetto resigned Tuesday, denying irregularities.
