Fujimori Criticized for Blaming the Army for Crimes
"It is a great act of impudence, because the (paramilitary) Colina group was not a creation of the Armed Forces — it came from other quarters — so these are matters before the courts and it is in the courts where they must be clarified," said the minister. Meanwhile, nationalist leader and retired army commander Ollanta Humala said this Saturday on Radio Nacional that Fujimori "must assume his direct responsibility for the excesses committed through the counter-insurgency policy" and should not try to "save his own neck" by blaming the Army.
