Peru shelter abuse probe ensnares Lima mayoral candidates

Peru's Family Prosecutor's Office is investigating two sexual assault cases at the municipal shelter La Casa de los Petisos, managed by Isabel Ayala and Rosa Torrejón, who are running for mayor under Renovación Popular. A tutor implicated in the probe, Adolfo Fuentes, also campaigns for former Lima mayor Rafael López Aliaga. The case links municipal governance failures to electoral politics, potentially affecting the credibility of the party ahead of elections.
