LIMA (Reuters) - The Peruvian attorney general's office accused former president Alejandro Toledo on Friday of taking bribes from Brazilian construction firm Camargo Correa SA in exchange for a lucrative highway contract during his 2001-2006 term.
An unnamed state's witness had helped uncover evidence that showed some $3.98 million (£2.98 million) in payments Camargo made to Toledo through offshore bank accounts controlled by one of Toledo's associates, the attorney general's office said in an emailed statement.
