LIMA (Reuters) - A Peruvian court on Tuesday ordered President Dina Boluarte's brother be held for up to three years as he is investigated over alleged influence peddling, bribery and involvement in a criminal organization, in a case that could implicate the country's top leader.
The court also issued an order for police to "immediately" locate and arrest Nicanor Boluarte, who was not present for his court hearings on Monday or Tuesday.
