REUTERS/Vicki BehringerSAN FRANCISCO - A former Peruvian first lady was dragged out of a courtroom in San Francisco on Thursday as she cursed a judge’s decision to keep her husband, ex-president Alejandro Toledo, in jail pending extradition proceedings.
“I’ve given a lot of thought to this,” Hixson told a courtroom packed with Toledo’s supporters and Peruvian media. “I’m going to maintain the detention order in place.” The outburst was the latest drama in the far-reaching corruption scandal that has hit Peruvian politicians particularly hard. Earlier this year, another former president, Alan Garcia, killed himself to avoid arrest in the Odebrecht probe. Two other former presidents are under investigation, with one under house arrest.
