A Peruvian judicial panel has ordered 15 months of pretrial detention for Jackson Mora and seven other individuals currently under investigation for their alleged involvement in a computer fraud scheme. The decision, handed down by the judiciary, follows a request from the Public Ministry regarding the suspects’ roles in a criminal network operating in the Chincha province.
The court’s ruling mandates that the eight individuals remain in custody while the investigation into the suspected illicit activities proceeds. Prosecutors had initially sought an 18-month period of detention to ensure the integrity of the ongoing probe, but the judge presiding over the case determined that a 15-month term was appropriate based on the evidence presented by the prosecution thus far. According to judicial records, the investigation focuses on allegations of unauthorized access to computer systems and related fraudulent activities.
