Law No. 26537 on faceless court terms
Law that established a new term for faceless tribunals in Peru, within the framework of the Fujimori government's anti-terrorist legislation. This law extended the operation of these special tribunals where judges acted with a reserved identity.
Law No. 26537, enacted on October 13, 1995, established a new term for faceless tribunals in Peru. This law was framed within the anti-terrorist legislation of Alberto Fujimori's government, which had implemented these special tribunals after the 1992 coup d'état. The faceless courts were a distinctive feature of the Peruvian judicial system during the counter-subversive struggle, where judges acted with a reserved identity. This rule temporarily extended the existence of these courts, which had been created as part of the emergency legislation to try cases of terrorism and treason.
