Fujimori, who fled Peru after his decade-long government collapsed five years ago, arrived here after years in exile in Japan to prepare for the 2006 presidential election scheduled for April in Peru. He was arrested by the Chilean police on Nov. 7.

Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo's cabinet approved on Friday 12 charges against Fujimori, a key step toward formally requesting the former president's extradition from Chile to stand trial.

The charges include the killing of 25 people in two death squad massacres, illegal phone tapping, diversion of state funds to the intelligence service and bribing of politicians.
