Four months into Castillo's term, his former presidential challenger Keiko Fujimori announced on 19 November 2021 that her party was pushing forward impeachment proceedings, arguing that Castillo was "morally unfit for office".[21] A short time later, controversy arose when newspapers reported that Castillo had met with individuals at his former campaign headquarters in Breña without public record, a potential violation of a recently created, complicated set of transparency regulations.[22] Audios purportedly obtained at the residence and released by América Televisión were criticized and dismissed as fraudulent.[23] Castillo responded to the impeachment threat, stating "I am not worried about the political noise because the people have chosen me, not the mafias or the corrupt".[24] The impeachment did not occur: 76 members of Congress voted against proceedings, 46 were in favor and 4 abstained, with which the requirement of 52 favourable votes was not met.[25] Free Peru ultimately supported Castillo through the process and described the vote as an attempted right-wing coup.[26] Castillo responded to the vote stating "Brothers and sisters, let's end political crises and work together to achieve a just and supportive Peru".[25]
