The magistrate Eloy Espinosa-Saldana affirmed that next April 7, the day on which the Inter-American Court of Human Rights will hold a hearing on the Barrios Altos and La Cantuta cases, the ruling of the Constitutional Court that restores the pardon granted by former President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski to former dictator Alberto Fujimori.
In “The Interview” with Paola Ugaz, Espinosa-Saldaña specified that the other scenario would be that the Inter-American Court could suspend the effects of the TC ruling and order a thorough medical analysis to determine Fujimori’s true state of health. “The Court always leaves the possibility open so that the terminally ill can go to a place where they can be cared for better.”
“If the Inter-American Court wants, on April 7 it can annul the judgment of the TC (which validates the pardon of Fujimori), or it can propose a measure to analyze Fujimori’s situation. because the seriously terminally ill person leaves prison to be able to go to a hospital and there try to manage his subsistence”, he declared.

Along these lines, the constitutional judge asserted that “someone who, due to age, is suffering from certain illnesses is not enough to be considered seriously terminally ill. The body with 80 years is having its problems.
Meanwhile, the sentence of the highest interpreter of the Magna Carta will remain in force, so Eloy Espinosa-Saldana calculates that “in the course of this week Fujimori should be leaving Diroes.”
He pointed out that the Constitutional Court notifies the Supreme Court of Justice, which revoked the former dictator’s presidential grace in 2018, and this instance coordinates with the National Penitentiary Institute (INPE) to execute the ruling in favor of the father of former presidential candidate Keiko Fujimori .
