LIMA, June 22 — A Peruvian judge yesterday dismissed a prosecutor’s request for the detention of corruption-accused presidential hopeful Keiko Fujimori while the country awaits the outcome of June 6 elections in which she vied for the top job.

Prosecutors have said they would seek a 30-year jail term for the 46-year-old daughter of corruption-convicted ex-president Alberto Fujimori. But yesterday, after a hearing of several hours, judge Victor Zuniga ruled “unfounded” the request for Fujimori’s parole to be rescinded. For her part, Fujimori said the prosecutor’s request was “arbitrary, disproportionate and unjust,” as dozens of her supporters demonstrated outside.
