SOT, Mara Auriol, Peruvian national (Spanish): "We are so happy, we are so happy to have come here, even though we still have to wait for one more hearing, but we hope that justice can finally be achieved, we've waited so many years to have all these corruption cases finally be brought to justice. We are so thankful. I do have to say something, I'm just so surprised they found a suitcase with 40 thousand dollars and this is one of the reasons used by the judge not to grant Alejandro Toledo his freedom."
M/S People in front of courthouse
SOT, Maria, Peruvian national (Spanish): "The security guard had to come outside to demand silence, because people were being very emotional outside of the court room, because they didn't want him to get the bail and then escape, we see a lot of people fleeing."

SOT, Maria, Peruvian national (Spanish): "Toledo is really staying and we are so very happy that justice has been achieved. My dad even came from Peru because we wanted to be present for this moment and he's staying. Good news."
M/S Journalists
SOT, Elias Bahamonde, Peruvian national (Spanish): "I think it's the right one (the judge's decision) because they were saying he had over 40 thousand dollars in a suitcase, ready to flee. So the judge's decision is the right one."

SOT, Rafael Vela, Peru's leading prosecutor in Lava Jato case (Spanish): "We have to scrupulously respect the strategy designed by the US Federal Prosecutor, so if it's necessary we are present for the next hearing, we will be present."

SOT, Rafael Vela, Peru's leading prosecutor in Lava Jato case (Spanish): "We scrupulously respect Mr. Toledo's rights, he has an active legal defense in Peru, he has two attorneys there, who are not only defending his rights when it comes to penal law, but they've also made various constitutional requirements demanding habeas corpus. They are a few of the legal arguments that have been answered by the federal prosecutor."

SCRIPT
A US judge denied bail for former Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo in San Francisco on Friday, after prosecutors argued him to be a flight risk and detailed that officials found a suitcase with $40,000 (35,607 EUR) in cash in his home during his arrest.
US Magistrate Judge Thomas Hixson ruled that Toledo, arrested earlier this week near his home in San Mateo, California, should be held in jail during extradition proceedings.
Peruvian nationals cheered the judge's decision outside of San Francisco's Federal Courthouse, and expressed hope that Toledo will be extradited to his home country.
Peru wants Toledo - who was president from 2001 to 2006 - to be extradited from the United States to stand trial for allegedly taking over $20 million (€18 million) from Brazilian construction company Odebrecht.
