Congress approved interpretative law 26492 obliging the application of amnesty on July 2, 1995.
On July 2, 1995, the Democratic Constituent Congress approved Law No. 26492 that interpreted Article 1 of Law No. 26479 in the sense that the general amnesty was of obligatory application by the Jurisdictional Bodies and reached all the facts derived from the fight against terrorism. The procedure was irregular: it was not publicly announced, it was not on the agenda, it was not debated and it was approved in the early hours of June 28, 1995. The law was promulgated without delay by Fujimori.
