Peru extends pre-trial detention for former president Castillo

LIMA (Reuters) - Peru's judiciary said on Thursday it was extending the pre-trial detention of former President Pedro Castillo by 18 months while an investigation against him on charges of rebellion continues.

The move adds four months onto the 14-month extension it had ordered back in June.
