PPK Blocked from Leaving Peru Amidst Campaign Finance Probe

Former Peruvian President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski prevented from leaving the country at Lima's Jorge Chávez International Airport on June 7th, 2025. The Peruvian National Superintendency of Migrations (Migraciones) blocked his departure due to an ongoing investigation into alleged illicit campaign contributions made during his 2016 presidential campaign. Prosecutors from the Second Specialized Prosecutor's Office in Money Laundering Crimes were at the airport, documenting the event. The investigation centers around allegations of irregular campaign financing. While Kuczynski has denied any wrongdoing, the incident highlights the ongoing scrutiny of his past political activities. A court hearing is scheduled to determine whether or not he is allowed to leave the country.
