Lima, December 6 (RHC)-- Peruvian dictator Alberto Fujimori was released from prison on Wednesday, after the Constitutional Court ordered his immediate release the day before.

Today, the National Penitentiary Institute (INPE) issued a statement in which it confirmed that after "processing the document in accordance with internal protocols," it would proceed with Fujimori's release.

Since 2009, dictator Alberto Fujimori has been serving a 25-year sentence for crimes against humanity and for his responsibility in the Barrios Altos and La Cantuta massacres.

During his time as head of the Peruvian government from 1990 to 2000, Fujimori was the author of 25 murders carried out by the Colina group, a clandestine military association that responded to his orders.

In Barrios Altos, 15 people were massacred, including an eight-year-old child; while nine students and a professor were killed by the same group at the Enrique Guzmán y Valle National University, known as La Cantuta.

The Colina group had received information that terrorists were among those groups of people, but the investigations corroborated that most of them were innocent people.

Likewise, his government was characterized by a forced sterilization plan, in which peasant women were forced to undergo sterilization to avoid access to government programs, as well as the assassination of community leaders.

After the news of Fujimori's release from prison, relatives of the victims gathered the day before to reject the Constitutional Court's decision.
