Peru ex-president extradited from US, taken to prison
Peru's former president Alejandro Toledo flies in on helicopter to the Barbadillo prison, following extradition from the United States to face charges of money laundering and corruption during his mandate.
The 77-year-old, who served as Peru's president from 2001 to 2006, was flown in the evening by helicopter to the Barbadillo prison, journalists witnessed.
Toledo is wanted by Peruvian prosecutors investigating a sprawling scandal involving Brazilian construction conglomerate Odebrecht.
