Right-wing populist Keiko Fujimori has been declared the winner in Peru's presidential election by a narrow margin, after a protracted vote counting process.

When all the votes have now been counted, it is clear that Fujimori has rounded up 50.1 percent of the votes against 49.9 percent for leftist candidate Roberto Sánchez, the country's electoral commission Onpe announced.

That is a difference of just under 50,000 votes.

Keiko Fujimori is the daughter of the authoritarian and in practice deposed and imprisoned president Alberto Fujimori.
