Former Peruvian president Alan Garcia is facing prison time in a corruption case as a key witness, imprisoned former justice minister Aurelio Pastor, has come forward to further implicate him. Garcia, in office from 2006-2011 is accused of accepting bribes in exchange for presidential pardons for some of the 3,274 drug traffickers who were freed during his administration. Most Peruvians hope to see Garcia put behind bars, joining another past president Alberto Fujimori, also in prison. Rael Mora reports from Lima. teleSUR
