Peru: Keiko Fujimori Arrested over Corruption
---------------------------------------------

In Peru, Keiko Fujimori, the leader of the opposition and daughter of
former dictator President Alberto Fujimori, was arrested Wednesday over
allegations of money laundering and accepting illegal campaign
contributions. Last week, a Peruvian judge overturned a pardon of her
father Alberto Fujimori, who is now expected to return to prison for
crimes including kidnapping, bribery and ordering massacres by death
squads in the 1990s during his presidential rule.
