Peruvian prosecutor reopens bribery investigation against journalist Gustavo Gorriti

Prosecutor Edward Casaverde has filed bribery charges against journalist Gustavo Gorriti regarding the 'Caso Cocteles' investigation, reversing his own December 2025 decision to archive the case due to insufficient evidence. The sudden reversal raises questions regarding the political motivations behind the judicial process and the potential for selective prosecution of investigative journalists in Peru.
