Former Prime Minister turns himself in

Former Prime Minister of Peru, Juan Carlos Hurtado Miller, has turned himself in to Peruvian Authorities after 10 years of seclusion.  After being accused of receiving money from President Alberto Fujimori in the year 2000, Miller went into hiding.  El Comercio is reporting that Miller was ordered to be under house arrest by a Lima court.


Hurtado Miller, now 70, awaits trial

So far, there have 78 government officials during the Alberto Fujimori presidency that are in prison and if Miller gets convicted, he will add to the list. 

The following YouTube video dwells into Miller's famous "God Help Us" speech where he was talking about taking drastic measure to ensure continual strength of the Peruvian economy at that time.
