The leader of Fuerza Popular, Keiko Fujimori, has reported that her father, former president Alberto Fujimori, successfully underwent a surgical intervention on Monday night and is currently recovering. The scheduled surgery had to be postponed briefly due to an atrial fibrillation crisis, but ultimately proceeded without any issues.
Keiko Fujimori took to social media to express her gratitude for the support received and stated that the definitive diagnosis and treatment plan will be determined once the results of the biopsy are known. She also mentioned that Alberto Fujimori is in good spirits and surrounded by the love of their family during his recovery.
The surgery was for an injury to Alberto Fujimori’s tongue, with a biopsy being performed to confirm the nature of the tumor and potential metastasis. His lawyer, Elio Riera, informed the Judiciary that Alberto Fujimori would be unable to appear in court due to his health condition, emphasizing his client’s impeccable procedural behavior and expressing confidence in proving his innocence.
The news of Alberto Fujimori’s successful surgery and recovery has brought relief to many, and the family continues to appreciate the prayers and expressions of solidarity during this time. The ongoing Pativilca case and its implications will be closely monitored as Alberto Fujimori focuses on his health and well-being.
