  Alan Garcia in suicide note denies all charges: “I leave my body as a sign of my contempt for my opponents”

  

  Peru's late former president Alan Garcia left a suicide note denying the corruption charges against him before taking his own life, one of his children revealed on Friday. Garcia, who was 69, died on Wednesday after shooting himself in the head when police came to his home to arrest him over allegations of money laundering during his time in office.
