Alberto Ken'ya Fujimori Inomoto was the President of Peru from July 28, 1990 to November 17, 2000.
In late 2000, in the face of mounting scandal, criticism over human rights abuses (including a compulsory sterilization program[2]) and growing instability, he left Peru to attend an APEC summit in Brunei and then continued on to Japan, from where he resigned. His resignation was initially transmitted by fax machine and later officially via the Peruvian Embassy in Tokyo. However, the Congress of the Republic refused to accept his resignation and removed him from office. It then barred him from holding any elective office for 10 years.
