Peruvian State Attorney in the Lava Jato case, Silvana Carrion, has affirmed that
Carrion reminded citizens that
Toledo must comply with a preventive detention order over the Interoceánica (Interoceanic Highway) case, which is
in charge of Prosecutor Jose Domingo Perez, who belongs to Lava Jato Case Special Prosecution Group.
The State Attorney pointed out that, given Toledo's status as former President of the Republic (2001-2006), he should be admitted to Barbadillo Prison in Lima's Ate district.
Asked about the current location of Alejandro Toledo, Carrion said that the former president is currently in the U.S. State of California and his condition is regulated, since he wears an electronic shackle.
"He is watched and constantly monitored," she said in remarks to Canal N on Tuesday night.
The State Attorney argued that it is up to U.S. authorities to execute the extradition (order), in coordination with their counterparts in Peru.
Carrion also said there is the possibility that Toledo will turn himself in to the U.S. justice —once the decision has been known.
Moreover, she stressed that the State Attorney's Office and the Special Prosecutor's Team had contributed and provided support to authorities by delivering information during the hearings before the U.S. Court so that this procedure could be carried out.
She recalled that, according to the investigations, the former President would have received a bribe worth nearly US$32 million from Brazilian construction company Odebrecht to favor it in its business in Peru.
