La República (Peru)LO·PE·about 8 hours ago
Peruvian prosecutor Andrea Lavado Pérez has requested the arrest of Joyce Bereche Maco, 26, for providing the vehicle and renting the house used in the August 30 quadruple murder of businessman Jenns Lara Tantaquilla in Trujillo. Bereche is allegedly a member of the criminal organization Los Pulpos, which is accused of direct involvement in the killings. The case highlights the reach of organized crime in northern Peru, though the suspect's exact role and the full extent of the network remain under investigation.
