Perú: en huelga de hambre, el ex presidente Pedro Castillo fue internado por una descompensación
El ex presidente peruano Pedro Castillo fue trasladado el jueves desde la cárcel donde permanece prisión preventiva hasta un hospital de Lima por presentar una descompensación en su salud, tras iniciar el lunes una huelga de hambre en protesta por el juicio por rebelión en su contra.
El tribunal de la Corte Suprema que lo juzga informó al inicio de la sesión del jueves que Castillo, de 55 años, fue enviado a un hospital por presentar una “descompensación” y para descartar un “trastorno hidroelectrolítico y una deshidratación leve”.
Castillo inició el lunes una huelga de hambre en protesta. La fiscalía ha pedido 34 años de cárcel por el presunto delito de rebelión, abierto en su contra por su intento de disolver el Congreso en diciembre de 2021 para evitar una votación de destitución y gobernar por decreto.
El ex presidente está en prisión preventiva desde el 7 de diciembre de 2022, el día en que leyó un discurso ante las cámaras de la televisión pública para gobernar por decreto y en el que no fue respaldado por las fuerzas de seguridad. Fue detenido a la salida y la justicia ordenó tres años de prisión preventiva en su contra mientras es procesado por rebelión.
El Congreso lo destituyó ese día y su entonces vicepresidenta Dina Boluarte asumió el poder. Hubo tres meses de protestas en los Andes que dejaron 50 civiles fallecidos.
El ex presidente ha calificado el juicio de “pantomima” y ha cuestionado a Norma Carbajal, una jueza del tribunal que lo juzga, por haber adelantado su opinión. Solicitó que sea reemplazada.
Castillo se ha negado a tener una defensa legal en el juicio y su primer abogado gratuito renunció. Ahora tiene a otros dos abogados gratuitos a quienes también ha rechazado. El martes otro informe de la agencia que administra las cárceles peruanas indicó que los médicos de la fiscalía habían diagnosticado a Castillo con “una ligera deshidratación” en el segundo día de su huelga de hambre.
El profesor rural que llegó al poder en 2021 también enfrenta otra investigación en la fiscalía por actos de presunta corrupción durante su gobierno, que incluyen ascensos irregulares dentro del escalafón militar y la designación de un consorcio para construir un puente sin respetar supuestamente las bases de un concurso.

His brother’s keeper: Ilay David warns his brother, Hamas hostage Evyatar, is running out of time
Evyatar David, a music lover who dreams of working in the industry, is languishing in a Hamas tunnel, according to his brother, Ilay David.
In a recent conversation with Fox News Digital, Ilay warned that his brother and all the hostages are running out of time.
«Every week we used to play music together. That’s what I miss the most,» Ilay told Fox News Digital. He has been fighting for Evyatar’s release since Oct. 7, 2023. Ilay described his brother as «the kindest soul I know.»
On Oct. 7, 2023, Evyatar was at the Nova music festival with three other friends when Hamas’ attacks began. Two of Evyatar’s friends did not survive the attacks, while he and his best friend, Guy Gilboa-Dalal, were taken hostage.

TRUMP’S DOJ CRACKS DOWN ON HAMAS WITH NEW TASK FORCE
Like many other hostage families, Evyatar’s family set up a website to tell the world who he is and why securing his freedom is so crucial. On the website, his family laments that his «vibrant life» was forever changed. There are also videos showcasing Evyatar’s guitar skills.
In February, the David family received a sign of life that Ilay described as being «shocking and amazing and frightening.» Evyatar and Guy were forced to participate in a Hamas propaganda film, a practice the terror group has employed throughout the war. In the video, the two men in their 20s appear frail and tired as they beg for their lives while being forced to watch a hostage release ceremony in Gaza.
«When it was finished, I could breathe,» Ilay told Fox News Digital as he recalled watching the film for the first time. «I saw them alive. I saw that they are together.»
Ilay’s relief washed away when he watched the video a second time.
«I saw how starved they are. They are half the men they used to be. And you could see in their eyes that they are exhausted, and they are begging for their lives,» Ilay told Fox News Digital. «They are broken, both of them, broken men.»
«They saw freedom, and they shut the door in their faces. And they threw them back into the tunnels. And that’s cruelty.»

ISRAELI HOSTAGES’ FAMILIES SUE MAHMOUD KHALIL, COLUMBIA ORGANIZERS AS ALLEGED ‘HAMAS’ PROPAGANDA ARM’ IN NYC
Ilay’s concerns about his brother have only grown since former hostages who were held with Evyatar detailed the conditions in which they were held. He told Fox News Digital that the former hostages said the two men have been underground in the tunnels for most of their captivity and were only able to see sunlight when they were taken to the ceremony. As is the case with most hostages, Evyatar and Guy are given very little to eat and have limited access to water.
«But it’s only a matter of time until — I don’t know — one of the terrorists would just… be angry or upset. So, he will decide that he wants to execute, execute Evyatar or Guy. And I don’t want to think about it, but it happened already,» Ilay told Fox News Digital, likely referring to the six hostages who were shot dead in late August 2024, just before Israeli troops were able to reach them.

Ilay told Fox News Digital he has done everything possible to tell his brother’s story and to make him «visible,» including going to Washington, D.C., to meet with American lawmakers. He believes President Donald Trump has a «very big role» to play in securing the release of Evyatar and the remaining hostages.
«[Trump], no kidding, may be sent by God to save these people,» Ilay said. He cited the release of 33 hostages over the course of the ceasefire deal that only recently fell apart, and said that if it weren’t for Trump, those people would still be in Gaza.
Ilay told Fox News Digital that, in his eyes, the atrocities of Oct. 7 have not ended — they are still happening for the people held by Hamas in Gaza.
