Alan Garcia, 69, was supposed to face questioning for alleged money laundering but was rushed to Casimiro Ulloa hospital in Lima after putting a bullet in his skull. As officers moved in to detain him, the two-time head of state said that he needed to speak with his lawyer and then shut himself in his room before a firearm blast rang out. The ex-premier fought for his life for around three hours, during which time he suffered three cardiac arrests and was resuscitated three times, before being pronounced dead.
