Peru: 248 murders in 46 days under Fujimori; Lima police density low
La República (Peru)LO·PE·3 days ago
Peru's Sinadef data shows over 250 murders in the first 50 days of Keiko Fujimori's government, with 73% gunshot-related; actual count may approach 300 due to unclassified deaths in Lima and Callao. This indicates a sustained high level of violent crime, likely linked to organized crime and drug trafficking, challenging the new administration's security agenda.
