His father, a banker, was general manager of the Banco Popular del Perú, which afforded the family a high level of material comfort.

2013

On April 8, 2013, following an appeal by Diez Canseco the Peruvian judiciary annulled the suspension as having violated Congressional due process. The court also left the possibility open for its reinstatement pending a new, more specific, report from the Congressional Ethics Committee. In early May 2013 a higher court rejected Congress' appeal and ratified the annulment of the suspension.

In early February 2013, Diez Canseco revealed that he was suffering from pancreatic cancer, for which he had been hospitalized since late January. He died on May 4, 2013.

The motion for suspension was presented although the Ethics Commission's own Technical Board had found that no ethics violation had taken place. The result of the vote was 130 congressmen: 55 voted in favor, 31 against, 4 abstentions and 40 did not vote because they were suspended (4) and absent (36). For his part, Diez Canseco denied any wrongdoing and accused political opponents, including First Lady Nadine Heredia, of colluding against him. However, said measure was annulled on April 4 by the Fifth Constitutional Court of Lima, in response to an amparo action filed by the legislator, since the sanction affected due process, the right to defense and honor of the congressman. The president of the Parliamentary Ethics Commission, Congressman Humberto Lay Sun, announced that they would appeal the ruling.
