Controversies

According to the regional outlet El Búho, the Eighth Court of Preparatory Investigation issued an indictment order (auto de enjuiciamiento) on 28 January 2026, sending Nolasco Delgado to oral trial for the alleged crime of incompatible negotiation. Prosecutors allege that in 2018, as municipal manager of Huaribamba, he improperly favoured a contractor on a trout-farm project, including signing contracts without available land and approving payments past deadlines without penalty. They seek four years in prison, four years' disqualification from public office, a fine and civil damages of S/ 147,185. He says the accusation lacks evidence and that his defence filed a motion to annul the indictment, which remained unresolved when the outlet reported.
