Six Venezuelans Arrested in Lima for Alleged Extortion Gang Ties

Peruvian authorities arrested six Venezuelan nationals in Lima, aged 23-32, on suspicion of belonging to Los Remanentes del Tren de Aragua, a splinter of the transnational criminal organization. The arrests continue a pattern of regional crackdowns on Tren de Aragua cells, but details on evidence and charges remain limited. The case underscores the spread of Venezuelan organized crime into Peru and its impact on local security.
