What draws the attention of the authorities is that Jaime Yoshiyama When he was questioned on January 4, 2018 about his relatives who financially contributed to the campaign he led in 2011, he lost his memory.
"I do not remember that close relatives made contributions," he replied.
And at the request of his nephew Jorge Yoshiyama and his wife Joon Lim Lee, he said that they knew that they had donated long after the end of the presidential campaign: "After the 2011 campaign , the media had announced that my nephew's wife (Joon Lim Lee) had made a contribution.
At that time, the version circulated that Jaime Yoshiyama Tanaka was the real owner of the money and used his family and friends as fake contributors to finance the campaign. The former fujimorista general secretary denied: "I take this opportunity to declare that the press would have disclosed that these contributions would have been made by myself, but divided by family members.This is totally false They are major and professional, they decide their activities and their donations according to their criteria ".
Ten months later, now that Jorge Yoshiyama Sasaki betrayed his uncle claiming that he had given him $ 800,000 to "sneak" them with fake contributors into the country, Jaime Yoshiyama Tanaka alters the version and alleges that the funds belonged to businessman Juan Rassmuss Echecopar.
On November 12, Jorge Yoshiyama Sasaki confessed that his uncle had ordered him to launder $ 800,000 with fake contributors, but only mentioned the extent of Peru. Prosecutor Perez again cited it, so this time he indicates which donations were transferred from foreign banks and if, in this case, the money was also provided by Jaime Yoshiyama Tanaka. Nothing is missing to finish putting in place the puzzle of money laundering committed by Fujimori in 2011.
The data
– without food. The version of Jaime Yoshiyama Tanaka, according to which the money he gave to his nephew comes from businessman Juan Rassmuss Echecopar, has no foundation. So, why wash these funds if they were legal?
– Contradiction. Jaime Yoshiyama states that Rassmuss gave him money in coins, but his nephew Jorge Yoshiyama He noted that his uncle kept all the money in a safe in his residence.
