Peruvian National Police raided the home of Piero Corvetto, the former head of the country's national election agency, on Friday. The action is part of a broader investigation into alleged irregularities surrounding the general election.
Anticorruption police gathered evidence and material from the residence of Corvetto as well as the homes of other officials. The raids were conducted as part of a new probe into alleged electoral irregularities.
Corvetto resigned his position earlier this week. His departure occurred amid mounting criticism over delays in counting votes from the April 12 general election.
