San Martin, where the suspect was arrested, is an area in downtown Lima, which is a distance from where the summit meetings are being held. It's about a 15-minute cabride away during normal traffic conditions, a longer ride during APEC week.
The suspect's capture appears to confirm what many observers had been suspecting for weeks: holding the APEC in Lima is like waving a red flag to Peru's homegrown terrorist groups.
El Hijo's fears are justified, Zithromax Diaper Rash.
This isn't my first brush with terrorism in Peru, 30mg Zithromax Diaper Rash.
I remember visiting Lima in May 1995. We stayed with El Fotografo's elderly aunt, who lived in downtown Miraflores. She lived in a small two-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a building in a busy business district, surrounded by hotels, 50mg Zithromax Diaper Rash, antique stores and casinos.

As I write this, I'm revisiting El Hijo's plan.
