According to the Public Ministry document, to which El Comercio agreed, Pacheco replied that “the money is the product of his savings and the salary he receives as secretary general of the Government Palace, a salary that amounts to S / 25,000, also allowing voluntarily to count the exhibited bills, verifying that it amounts to the sum of US $ 20,000 ″.

According to said record, the discovery took place among Pacheco’s personal belongings, in a room of the secretary’s office “corresponding to a bathroom and dressing room.”

The prosecution staff also proceeded to make photocopies of the banknotes, while Bruno Pacheco promised to “credit the money displayed as soon as possible.”

Pacheco is being investigated by the anti-corruption prosecutor’s office for the alleged pressure exerted by President Pedro Castillo’s trusted official on the head of Sunat.

El Comercio tried unsuccessfully to learn the version of Hugo Mendoza Malpartida, Bruno Pacheco’s lawyer.

During the diligence, the prosecution also inspected the office of the general secretary, where Pacheco was asked to display public documentation located on his desk, as well as to access his computer equipment and extract information from it.

All these acts were part of the “diligence for the display of non-private documents, as well as the display of the computers of the General Secretariat of the Government Palace.”
