Peru says ex-president has sought asylum in Uruguay

Former president of Peru, Alan Garcia, went to Uraguay for diplomatic asylum due to the revoke of his passport because of allegations of corruption. He was believed to be recieving money from a Brazilian construction giant called Odebrecht. Odebrecht has a history of working with politicians with a previous president resigning because he hid the fact that he used to be a consultant for the country. Garcia pushed the country towards a conservative country where Odebrecht played a supporting role.This is not the first time that Garcia has fled the country.
