New evidence against the former leader of Peru has been found that strongly incriminates him into corruption of power and embezzelment. Alberto Fujimori, who fled to Japan in 2000 after a scandal which ended his career, has seemingly hundreds of millions of dollars in his offshore and Peruvian accounts, much more than what he earned while in office.

But last year, prosecutors said they had traced a $150,000 cheque that showed Mr Fujimori had diverted money from Japanese aid agencies to one of his bank accounts in 1996.

Supreme Court Judge Jose Luis Lecaros said there was "a great imbalance" between his earning power and the hundreds of millions of dollars in his foreign and Peruvian bank accounts.

The country is now preparing a second extradition request which will include the new corruption charges and details aimed at backing up earlier accusations.

Well, looks like he has been caught red handed by the investigators when he moved that cheque. I admit this is the first time that i have heard of the scandal behind the events in Peru between 1980 and 2002, and i am honestly not suprised at the goverments response.

The murders by the subversive groups like 'The Shining Path' or others are all linked to goverment bodies by money, they dont agree with someone..they get there 'thugs' to kill them or torture them.

Thousands of people are reported to have been killed by goverment order by The Shining Path, many more probably still unknown about, but seems they are finnally doing something about the state of affairs in Peru and there will be justice.
