"Once he finished the treatment on the tongue, we evaluated him. We realised that there had been a good response, if not complete, as we would have liked, but there had been a good response. The engineer held up and his body held up and the tumour shrank and shrank by 40%, which is a very good response. But we were with the lung situation and in a new medical meeting it was decided. And in this, if I have to say it at the insistence of the patient himself, he wanted to keep fighting, he wanted to keep trying to see how to control his disease and he opted for an immunological treatment, which is an intravenous treatment, both to be able to fight it from the mouth as well as through the lungs. The immunological treatment is very good, but it also has its side effects, and as a result of those side effects, he developed respiratory problems. Two days ago, he was given oxygen, he began to lack more oxygen, the air began to swell. In the end, last night he was unconscious and well, in the end today, as he said very well, very good. He passed away at approximately 18:00 in the evening or thereabouts."

STORYLINE:
Alberto Fujimori, whose decade-long presidency began with triumphs righting Peru’s economy and defeating a brutal insurgency only to end in a disgrace of autocratic excess that later sent him to prison, has died. He was 86.
His death Wednesday in the capital, Lima, was announced by his daughter Keiko Fujimori in a post on X.
Crowds and press gathered outside of his residency.
Marta Moyano, a Peruvian congresswoman and member of the ‘Popular Force’ party, the same as Keiko Fujimori, Alberto Fujimori’s Daughter left the house saying "From tomorrow there will be a vigil".
He had been pardoned in December from his convictions for corruption and responsibility for the murder of 25 people. His daughter said in July that he was planning to run for Peru’s presidency for the fourth time in 2026.
Fujimori, who governed with an increasingly authoritarian hand in 1990-2000, was pardoned in December from his convictions for corruption and responsibility for the murder of 25 people. His daughter said in July that he was planning to run for Peru’s presidency for the fourth time in 2026.
The former university president and mathematics professor was the consummate political outsider when he emerged from obscurity to win Peru’s 1990 election over writer Mario Vargas Llosa. Over a tumultuous political career, he repeatedly made risky, go-for-broke decisions that alternately earned him adoration and reproach.
