Fujimori is only the most famous of Peru's convicted human rights abusers. Since 2001, when an Inter-American Court of Human Rights decision nullified the country's 1995 amnesty law, opening up the possibility for criminal trials in human rights cases, there have been almost a dozen successful convictions, including eight with firm sentences and dozens of other cases in trial.

Ha hecho bien, pues, la inmensa mayoría de votantes de la social-cristiana Lourdes Flores, en la primera vuelta de las elecciones peruanas, en apoyar al candidato del APRA y darle la victoria.

Instead, the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission (CVR) adopted an integral approach to post-conflict reconstruction that favored truthtelling, reparations, and institutional reforms, while also calling for retributive justice in the most heinous cases of rights abuses.
