The Japan Times - Notary Alfredo Zambrano Denies Cloning and Money Laundering Allegations

Peruvian notary Alfredo Zambrano has denied allegations linking him to license plate cloning and money laundering, while also rejecting claims of a relationship with television personality Andrés Hurtado.

Zambrano, the husband of broadcaster Magaly Medina, addressed the accusations directly after being approached by reporters in Lima. The confrontation occurred as he was leaving a restaurant in the La Molina district following a gathering with friends where alcohol was served.

Television cameras captured Zambrano exiting the establishment while reportedly intoxicated. Reporters immediately questioned him regarding serious complaints filed against his notary office concerning alleged irregularities and criminal activities.

Responding to the inquiries, Zambrano stated, "That is archived, it has already passed," according to program narration. He remained stationary before cameras as security personnel opened the door to his vehicle.

Despite his apparent state of intoxication, reporters persisted with questions regarding his personal connections. Specifically, they asked about any ties between him and Hurtado, known by the nickname 'Chibolín'.

Zambrano firmly denied any such association. "No, never," he said when asked if he maintained any link with the television presenter.

The notary's denial addresses both the legal accusations against his professional practice and the personal rumors regarding his relationship with a prominent media figure.
