The letter left by Alan García before killing himself and …

Former Peruvian President Alan García, who committed suicide Wednesday in Lima, left a letter before shooting himself in the head. His daughter, Luciana García Nores, read it in public this Friday as a result of the dual presidency of Casa del Pueblo, seat of APRA, the party where he played.

Upon reading the letter, it is evident that Garcia intended to commit suicide when the search was conducted at his home, where he went to his room, took a rifle and pointed his head. Justice officials arrived at the president's house between 1985 and 1990 and between 2006 and 2011 to arrest him for his links to the Odebrecht corruption scheme. He says in a pbadage that leaves his body "as a sign of my contempt for my adversaries because I have already fulfilled the mission I have set for myself". He also said that "they never found anything and I beat them again because they will never find more than their speculations and their frustrations".

Garcia's suicide shocked Peru and the government of Martín Vizcarra granted no honor to the head of state at his funeral. APRA relatives and activists sent Garcia back to Huachipa in one day during which he was to cry the accident of a rented micro that had led Apristas sympathizers to burial and was struck at the wall of a Huara highway. The balance is eight dead.

Garcia's posthumous letter is:

I have fulfilled the mission of leading the apismo to power twice and we have once again promoted its social strength. I think it was the mission of my existence, rooted in the blood of this movement.

For this reason, and because of the setbacks in power, our opponents have opted for the strategy of criminalizing me for over 30 years. But they never found anything and I beat them again, because they will never find more than their speculations and their frustrations.

In this period of repeated rumors and hatreds, which majorities deem true, I have seen how procedures are used to humiliate or vex and not to find truths.

For many years, I have overcome insults. I defended myself and the homage of my enemies was to argue that Alan García was smart enough not to be able to prove his slanders.

There were no accounts, no bribes, no wealth, history is worth more than any family wealth. There could never be enough price to break my pride of Aprista and Peru. That 's why I have repeated, others are selling, not me.

I have fulfilled my duty in politics and in the work for the people, having achieved the goals that other countries or governments have not achieved, I do not have to accept humiliations. I've seen others handcuffed threatening their miserable existence, but Alan García does not have to suffer these injustices and circuses.

Therefore, I leave my children the dignity of my decisions. To my companions, a sign of pride; and my corpse, as a sign of my contempt for my adversaries, because I have already fulfilled the mission I have set for myself.

May God, to whom I go with dignity, protect those who have a good heart and are humble.
