The ex-president Alexander Toledo participated as a witness in the oral trial that follows the former president Ollanta Humala for the alleged crime of money laundering.
Toledo’s statement is given to explain the alleged financial support that Ollanta Humala would have received from Venezuela in 2006. His presence was requested by prosecutor Germán Juárez, from the Lava Jato Special Team.
It is attributed to Humala Tasso that he would have allocated part of the tainted money to the financing of the 2011 electoral campaign of the Nationalist Party, carried out with his wife, in complicity with Mario Julio Torres Aliaga, then treasurer of this political organization.
Another of the three accusations refers to the financing of the electoral campaign for the general elections of 2006. According to the investigations, the former presidential partner would have received money illegally extracted from the Venezuelan public treasury that was remitted by the late President Hugo Chávez, through the Venezuelan company Inversiones KA.
The hearing began at 9 in the morning and was presided over by Nayko Coronado, of the Third National Collegiate Criminal Court.
It should be noted that Toledo Manrique is in San Francisco, United States, serving house arrest, while his extradition to Peru is being resolved so that he can answer for the investigations once morest him.
