A Peruvian court on Tuesday sentenced ex-President Ollanta Humala to 15 years in prison for receiving illicit campaign funds from a Brazilian construction firm, making him the nation's latest former leader to head behind bars, Reuters reported. Humala and his wife were accused of receiving funds from Brazilian builder Odebrecht, now known as Novonor, in his successful 2011 election campaign. Humala's wife, Nadine Heredia, was also sentenced to 15 years in prison on Tuesday.
Telefónica has sold its Peruvian subsidiary, Telefónica del Perú, to Argentine company Integra Tec International for approximately US$ 992,000, marking its exit from the Andean country after three decades, MercoPress reported.

Telefónica del Perú, holding 99.3% of shares, faced a financial crisis, entering bankruptcy proceedings in February.
