Via the BBC: Fujimori jailed for abusing power

The former Peruvian President, Alberto Fujimori, has been sentenced to six years in prison and fined $92,000 (£45,000) for abuse of power.

He was found guilty of ordering the removal of sensitive video and audio tapes from a flat belonging to the wife of his former intelligence chief.

This is the result of a separate trial than the one I mentioned yesterday, which focuses on human rights abuses.

In regards to the video grab:

Supreme Court Judge Pedro Guillermo Urbina found Mr Fujimori guilty of having a military aide pose as a prosecutor and search without a warrant the apartment of the wife of spy chief Vladimiro Montesinos in November 2024.

During the illegal raid, police removed dozens of boxes of videos suspected to contain incriminating evidence of corrupt practices.
