Amnesty says closing Peru sterilisation probe keeps impunity alive
Original: Peru: Closing the investigation into forced sterilisations perpetuates impunity
Amnesty International is condemning Peru's decision to close the long-running investigation into the forced sterilisations of thousands of mostly Indigenous women during the 1990s. The organisation says the closure perpetuates impunity and denies victims justice and reparations after more than two decades of delays in prosecuting those responsible for the state-led programme.
Why now: Peru has closed the investigation into the forced sterilisation of thousands of women under Fujimori, prompting human rights groups to denounce the perpetuation of impunity.
