Keiko Fujimori heads for runoff in vote

By Agencies In Lima, Peru | China Daily | Updated: 2016-04-12 07:42

Keiko Fujimori, daughter of an ex-president jailed for massacres, was heading for a runoff vote on Monday that could make her Peru's first female leader.

In an election marred by allegations of vote-buying and a day after an attack left seven people dead, Fujimori, 40, had a double-digit lead over the second-place contender, centrist rival Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, 77.

But since Fujimori fell short of 50 percent, she must now face Kuczynski in a second round vote on June 5.
