More than 2,000 women...who claim they were sterilized against their will...are finished waiting for justice.
In the mid 1990's...then President Alberto Fujimori began a sterilization program to lower the birth rate.
Many women say they were deceived, bribed and pressured to submit to the procedure...to fulfill quotas.
More than 300,000 women...mostly indigena...were sterilized...from 1995-2000.
The women who filed formal complaints...are tired of waiting for results...from a go-slow, poorly funded official investigation.
