Peru Leader Could Be Biggest to Fall in Latin America Graft Scandalbr Latin America said that As in Brazil, they’re not pursuing corruption charges to cleanbr Peru of corruption, they’re using the charges to remove their enemies from power,br "There are no formal charges, no accusation under the Constitution — they say ‘you’re out’ andbr that is not the Peru that we want." The projects in Peru were only the tip of the iceberg for Odebrecht, which admitted last year to bribes of around $800 million from Mexico to Angola, even maintaining a separate division that managed the payoffs.br The transaction was revealed last week in a disclosure to Congress which said Westfield Capital, a companybr owned by Mr. Kuczynski, had taken the money from Odebrecht in exchange for consulting services.br Eduardo Dargent said that He knew this was kryptonite,br Peru’s Congress is set to open impeachment proceedings against Mr. Kuczynski on chargesbr that he improperly received $782,000 from Odebrecht through a company he owned.br "We thought Kuczynski would be different, but now we are disappointedbr and waiting with anxiety for Thursday to see what they tell us." In comparison to the $4 million for the road, the payments the president’s company is accused of accepting appear relatively small.
