Abstract

In a historical ruling, unprecedented in national law, and one of the most relevant sentences in international case law, the National Criminal Division of the Supreme Court of Peru convicted the former president Alberto Fujimori Fujimori as the indirect perpetrator of crimes against humanity, essentially on the grounds of the theory of the indirect perpetrator by organization, to judge those crimes perpetrated through organized power structures. The study recalls the origin and background of the theory, analyzing and providing critical opinions on the grounds of the sentence in relation to the criminal participation of the former Peruvian head of state, which sets the bases for national case law and consolidates the indirect perpetratorship in our midst.
