A far-left union leader and teacher has taken a surprise, though slim, lead in Peru s presidential election, and will likely face a right-wing rival in a run-off in June, incomplete results showed Monday.
With nearly 90 percent of ballots counted by Monday evening, leftist Pedro Castillo was in the lead with 18.83 percent – much higher than predicted by opinion polls which had not even placed him in the top five.

LIMA (AFP) – The start of court proceedings against Peru’s former president Alberto Fujimori for a programme blamed for forcibly sterilising thousands of poor, mostly indigenous women has generated hope among victims that justice will finally be served.
“We’ve been waiting more than 20 years for justice. I want them to recognise us, to apologise to all the women” threatened or coerced into being sterilised, Gloria Basilio Huaman told
AFP.
She said authorities tricked her into getting her fallopian tubes tied when she was 27, as part of a family planning programme implemented by Fujimori during the final four years of his mandate.
