Alberto Fujimori, president of Peru from 1990 to 2000, was involved in multiple scandals and legal issues, including being sentenced in 2009 to seven and a half years in prison for embezzlement for transferring $15 million from the Peruvian treasury to his intelligence chief, Vladimiro Montesinos, and an additional six years for bribery (Wikipedia). He fled Peru in 2000 amid charges of corruption and human rights abuses, and was later extradited from Chile in 2007, where he was convicted of ordering illegal searches and seizures, and sentenced to six years (Wikipedia). In 2009, he was also convicted of human rights violations, receiving a 25-year sentence for his role in killings and kidnappings by the Grupo Colina death squad during his government (Wikipedia).
