Josué Gutiérrez serves as the Defensor del Pueblo (Ombudsman) in Peru, a position that involves advocating for the rights of citizens and ensuring the protection of constitutional rights. He has recently been in the news for filing a constitutional demand challenging the legitimacy of the legislative decree that governs the Extinction of Domain, a legal process that allows the state to seize assets suspected of being acquired through illicit activities. His case is particularly notable as it concerns a vehicle owned by his sister, raising questions about conflicts of interest and the implications of the decree on numerous ongoing legal cases.
