LIMA, April 16 (Reuters) - Former Peruvian president Martín Vizcarra has been banned from holding public office for 10 years in a unanimous vote by the country s congress after he allegedly jumped the queue to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
Vizcarra was found guilty of influence peddling, collusion and making false declarations in relation to Peru s VIP Vaccines scandal which saw scores of ministers and public officials receive Sinopharm vaccines before they were publicly available in the country.
Congress approved his temporary banning from public office by 86 votes in favour and zero against.
It also disqualified the former Health Minister Pilar Mazzetti from holding public office for eight years; and former Foreign Minister Elizabeth Astete for a year.
