-Caveat Lector- Peruvian investigator to file charges against Fujimori The Associated Press LIMA, Peru (January 22, 2001 9:53 p.m. EST http://www.nandotimes.com) - An investigator appointed by Alberto Fujimori said Monday that he plans to file charges against the former president for abusing the use of state funds in publicity campaigns. Former president Fujimori has been exiled in Japan since soon after a corruption scandal brought down his government in November. After interviewing Fujimori's former publicity adviser, Jose Ugaz told RPP radio Monday that he would bring charges against the former president. Ugaz said publicist Daniel Borobio told him that Fujimori had ordered that publicity contracts for state entities and activities go to government-friendly media. Without giving more details, Ugaz also said evidence shows the "clear involvement" of Fujimori's top adviser Vladimiro Montesinos in corrupt acts involving "many millions of dollars." Fujimori appointed Ugaz to investigate Montesinos for masterminding a web of corruption spanning arms deals, drug trafficking and influence peddling. Allegations of Montesinos' criminal workings grew after a video aired in September that showed him apparently bribing a congressman. The ensuing scandal eventually toppled Fujimori and forced Montesinos into hiding. Since Saturday, authorities have detained Montesinos' daughter, sister, brother, sister-in-law and former secretary, as well as four retired army generals with close ties to the fugitive former spy chief. They are being held on a variety of charges, ranging from corruption to suspicion of money laundering. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
