Peruvian dictator Alberto Fujimori was released from prison on Wednesday, after the Constitutional Court ordered his immediate release the day before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today, the National Penitentiary Institute (INPE) issued a statement in which it confirmed that after “processing the document in accordance with internal protocols,” it would proceed with Fujimori’s release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2009, dictator Alberto Fujimori has been serving a 25-year sentence for crimes against humanity and for his responsibility in the Barrios Altos and La Cantuta massacres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During his time as head of the Peruvian government from 1990 to 2000, Fujimori was the author of 25 murders carried out by the Colina group, a clandestine military association that responded to his orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Barrios Altos, 15 people were massacred, including an eight-year-old child; while nine students and a professor were killed by the same group at the Enrique Guzm\u00e1n y Valle National University, known as La Cantuta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Colina group had received information that terrorists were among those groups of people, but the investigations corroborated that most of them were innocent people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Likewise, his government was characterized by a forced sterilization plan, in which peasant women were forced to undergo sterilization to avoid access to government programs, as well as the assassination of community leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the news of Fujimori’s release from prison, relatives of the victims gathered the day before to reject the Constitutional Court’s decision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
