Former Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori is no longer safe in Chile. The supreme court of that Southern Cone nation has approved his extradition to Peru where he will face human rights abuse and corruption charges. 69 year old Fujimori has been under house arrest in Chile since 2005.
“We have awarded the extradition,” Supreme Court judge Alberto Chaigneau told reporters on Friday. He added that the court’s decision had been based on two charges of human rights violations and five of corruption.
