SANTIAGO - Chile's Supreme Court approved on Friday former Peruvian
President Alberto Fujimori's extradition to Peru for human rights
violations and corruption, Supreme Court officials said on Friday.
The final verdict was taken by judges Alberto Chaigneau, Jaime Espoz,
Hugo Dolmestch, Ruben Ballesteros and Nibaldo Segura.
Judge Alberto Chaigneau published the verdict on Friday morning, which
can not be appealed and is definitive.
When asked if Fujimori must leave Chile soon, Chaigneau said " the
judicial power finishes (its task) by notifying the verdict to the
lawyers, the extradited and the Foreign Ministry and the Executive Power
so that they do whatever is necessary."
The approval made Friday revoked the first verdict, sentenced on July 11
by Judge Orlando Alvarez, rejecting the extradition request.
Fujimori has been in Chile since November of 2005 and is currently under
house arrest in an exclusive condominium in Santiago's outskirts.
Government sources said there are two alternatives to extradite Fujimori:
a Chilean Air Force aircraft or an aircraft sent from Lima to take him to
Peru.
