After a brief stint at Sport Boys of Callao in 2005, he returned to Alianza Lima to obtain the 2006 Decentralized Championship. This would be Forsyth's fourth national title, but the first where he was the undisputed holder, being considered the best goalkeeper of the season. [8]

On 20 February 2007, Forsyth made his debut in a Copa Libertadores against Club Necaxa. with a 2–1 defeat of his team, playing 43 minutes. At the 2007 Copa Libertadores, he played 3 games, receiving 6 goals, playing 223 minutes, remaining last without being able to qualify.

Forsyth was called up for the last game of the 2010 Torneo Descentralizado against University of San Martín de Porres, ending 1–1. After a season plagued of injuries, adding the harsh elimination against Universidad de Chile, Forsyth hoped to fully recover in 2011 in order to return as a starter. However, Alianza Lima was eliminated in the playoffs towards the group stage of the 2011 Copa Libertadores against Jaguares, with the score of 2–0 in Lima, and also in Chiapas. Finally, seeing that his chances of returning as the starter goalkeeper were slim, on Forsyth announced his departure from Alianza Lima on 3 March, but that he would return to the club to be the president. [11]

Mayor of La Victoria

At the 2018 municipal elections, Forsyth retired from football and was nominated for mayor of the La Victoria by the We Are Peru party. He was subsequently elected as mayor with 34.6% of the vote. [15]

Forsyth's tenure has been described as "tough-on-crime", with the ex-footballer assuming office in January 2019. [1] [16] At the beginning, he moved the mayor's office to the San Cosme Sports Complex, a vulnerable area due to the greater concentration of urban and informal commercial growth in the district in front of the Gamarra commercial emporium. On the other hand, he sealed an agreement with the president of the Judiciary for the installation of a Flagrancy Court in the district. Likewise, he reached a formal agreement with the National Prosecutor's Office for the installation of a Corporate Provincial Prosecutor's Office of the Public Ministry. [17]

With Peru having about seventy-three percent of workers working informally in 2019, [18] Forsyth fought against informal vendors in La Victoria. [1] He ordered the three day closure of the Gamarra in order to remove informal and illegal commerce that competed with the complex. [19] In late-2019, Forsyth spent three months training to be a reservist for the Peruvian Army and graduated in December 2019.

[24] He later backtracked on his statement, saying Peruvians "have their legitimate right to go out and protest and people have to demonstrate and raise their voices, very carefully and without violence". [25]

A video on an account portraying to be linked to hacktivist group Anonymous was spread denouncing corruption in Peru and described Forsyth as the only "clean" presidential candidate, though Peruvian media and official Anonymous accounts later reported that the group denied support for any political candidates. [26] [27] Anonymous would later allege that Forsyth created the fake video himself as promotion for his presidential campaign, threatening him with possible hacking activity. [26] [27] [28] Forsyth later denied involvement with the video [27]

It was reported in January 2021 that Forsyth was invited to Brazil by governor of São Paulo, João Doria. [29] While in Brazil, Forsyth had also met with former Brazilian president Michel Temer, with the latter providing Forsyth with campaign advice. [30]

During his campaign, he was accused of having offered a position to one of his friends in La Victoria District with an excessive remunerations; the Public Ministry opened an investigation of the situation. [31]

Disqualification

A report from the investigative journalism website OjoPúblico – which was released between the 31 January and 3 February 2021, a week before presidential candidates were finalized – alleged that three vehicles owned by Forsyth were gifted to him from companies he was involved with and that various companies he held shares in were not included in his electoral application for the National Jury of Elections (JNE). [32] OjoPúblico wrote that Forsyth did not mention that he was gifted vehicles worth US$67,000 in his electoral documentation; a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado from Inca Rail shareholder and Crosland Kawasaki dealer Juan Forsyth Alarco, a Honda Pilot and Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R from George Forsyth's GRT Seguridad y Control security company. [32] The investigation also reported that Forsyth was the founder and a shareholder of Fyvcon, a real estate company, and nine other companies. [32] Of the companies, OjoPúblico reported that Forsyth did not declare income from Fyvcon in 2019 and that he did not include four of the ten companies in his JNE application. [32] Included in the report were statements by Special Electoral Juries (JEE) auditor Ivan Salazar Salazar, who said "the candidate did not declare income that he would receive in the private sector" and "we would be facing a possible omission of information", with OjoPúblico concluding that "the JEE of Lima Centro 1 will have to make a decision on the request for exclusion of the candidate". [32]

On 10 February 2021 when presidential candidates were finalized, the Special Electoral Juries JEE ruled that Forsyth be disqualified from the presidential election citing information that was allegedly falsified and excluded from his election application. [33] [34] According to the filed report, the information in question involved Forsyth holding shares to various companies that were not included in his application. [33] Following the JEE's decision, the National Victory party still had the opportunity to appeal. [34]

On 22 February 2021, the National Elections Jury (JNE) annulled the JEE resolution, [35] and he was reinstated to the race by the National Jury of Elections on 5 March 2021, following an appeal. [36]

Ideology and views

Forsyth is a member of the liberal conservative National Victory party, which emerged from the right-wing Evangelical National Restoration. He described himself as a centrist and focused on combatting crime during his tenure as mayor. [1] [37] Political scientist Dr. Paula Muñoz of the Universidad del Pacífico described Forsyth as "a pro-business guy", while Americas Quarterly wrote "his views on big economic issues are less clear". [1]

Personal life

During his mayoral candidacy in 2018, Forsyth married Peruvian actress Vanessa Terkes on 25 August 2018. [38] Weeks after taking office in January 2019, Forsyth announced that Terkes was leaving to Mexico due to alleged death threats against the couple, leading rumors of a separation. [38] The two were married for eight months until they divorced in May 2019. [38] Days after their divorce, Terkes presented charges of domestic violence against Forsyth to the Public Ministry of Peru on 31 May 2019, with her lawyer stating that she experienced psychological abuse from Forsyth during their marriage. [38] [39] Forsyth denied the allegations, saying that his municipal government was "building a place for women, girls who have been violated" and stating "I respect all women very much". [40] On 4 April 2021, a week before the general elections, Forsyth announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19 in a molecular test carried out after a trip to the regions of Madre de Dios, Junín and Cajamarca.
