Fujirrested

The former president of Peru was just arrested in Chile, as he was en route to a potential political revival in Peru. Apparently former president Fujimori, who was wanted on corruption and human rights charges, had been waging a highly successful virtual campaign out of a Tokyo hotel room and decided to roll the dice on international law by heading to Peru. And for once international law won!

My favorite part of the article is Fujimori's flight plan:

Peru's El Comercio newspaper reported in its edition Monday that Fujimori initially flew from Tokyo to Atlanta on Delta Airlines and then took a private plane to Santiago, with a stop in Tijuana.

OK, maybe Tokyo to Atlanta was the cheapest fare. But then why break the bank chartering a private plane? And why Tijuana? One last roll in the hay before implosion, a la Barrett Robbins?
