he had gone to the SIN to meet with Montesinos on two more occasions, receiving a total of 32,000 dollars.
The official Constitutional Tribunal record says Kouri received money on three later dates—not two—and that those payments totaled US$60,000, not US$32,000.
Full reasoning
An official Peruvian Constitutional Tribunal judgment describing the Kouri case states that, after the original videotaped payoff, Kouri received the same amounts of money on three later dates: 3 June, 19 July, and 7 August 2000. It adds that those payments "sumadas ascienden a sesenta mil dólares americanos" (sum to US$60,000).
That directly contradicts the article's statement that there were only two additional meetings and that the total was US$32,000. Even if one counted only later payments, the Tribunal lists three dates, not two; and the stated sum is US$60,000, not US$32,000.

He was also ordered to pay 200,000 nuevos soles to the Peruvian State as civil reparations.
Contemporary court reporting says Kouri's civil reparation was 500,000 nuevos soles, not 200,000.
Full reasoning
Multiple contemporaneous reports on Kouri's sentence say the court-imposed reparación civil was 500,000 nuevos soles.
- In June 2005, Andina reported that a judge denied Kouri semiliberty because he had not guaranteed payment of the "reparación civil de 500 mil nuevos soles" imposed when he was sentenced.
- Another Andina report the same month likewise stated that the judiciary ordered Kouri to pay 500 mil nuevos soles and that he had paid only 1,200 soles.
Those reports directly contradict the article's figure of 200,000 nuevos soles.
