Peru's Supreme Court is considering the prosecution's request for up to 18 months of preventative arrest for former President Pedro Castillo after he was charged with rebellion and conspiracy, the court said on Wednesday ahead of a new hearing.
Castillo was ousted in an impeachment trial last week and arrested after trying to dissolve the country's Congress. His initial detention is set to end in the coming hours and prosecutors are now looking to move him from preliminary detention to preventative arrest.
