Luis Herrera, the former head of the cabinet of advisors for the Peruvian Ministry of the Interior, has publicly characterized the removal of General Óscar Arriola from his position as commander general of the National Police of Peru (PNP) as a political decision. The statement follows a period of heightened security concerns and a recent crisis in the city of Trujillo.
Herrera’s assessment suggests that the leadership change within the national police force is tied to political maneuvering rather than administrative or operational necessity. The development highlights ongoing tensions regarding police leadership and government oversight in the wake of regional instability.
