Julio Vargas Garayar

Julio Alfonso Vargas Garayar was the last person to be executed by Peru. Vargas Garayar, a 29-year-old Air Force non-commissioned officer, was convicted of spying on local military air fields and giving the information to Chilean intelligence. His execution in January 1979 took place amid increasing historical tensions between Peru and Chile.

Since Vargas Garayar's execution, Peru has not applied the death sentence again, becoming an abolitionist country for common crimes, allowing its usage in war times and acts of terrorism. Provided by Wikipedia
