Two-time president of #Peru Alan Garcia was about to be arrested as part of a preliminary investigation into corruption when he locked himself in a room and shot himself. All of Peru’s ex presidents are in jail or under investigation for corruption. larepublica.pe/politica/14513…
García, who is 69, is under investigation in Peru over allegations of bribery tied to the sweeping Odebrecht corruption scandal. He has carefully evaded prosecution for many serious accusations of corruption during both presidencies (electric train, petro audios, etc).
He has also managed to avoid #Peru’s sweeping investigations into human rights violations during his first government when he gave the military a blank check to murder suspected insurgents which resulted in mass human rights violations against non-combatant civilians.
