Former President of Peru, Alberto Fujimori, was tried on Wednesday September 30th. The crime? Corruption.The verdict? six years in prison. The prosecutors feel that this is too light of a sentence, while Fujimori feels that it is too harsh. Therefore, both will be appealing. However, even if the ex-President gets locked up for a long time, his politically involved daughter, Keiko, is said to be running for president in 2011. Looks like we will unfortunately not be getting rid of the Fujimori's any time soon then.
