Peru police raid birthday party, detain 28 suspected 'Tren de Aragua' members

A police operation in Cieneguilla, Peru, on Sunday afternoon led to the detention of 28 individuals suspected of being members of the 'Tren de Aragua' criminal organization. The group was found at a property believed to be a 'bunker' where a birthday celebration was taking place. The case is now under police investigation to establish the identities and legal status of everyone detained.

Preliminary information suggests that among those apprehended is a woman with an active warrant for alleged illicit drug trafficking. The police arrived at the property in Cieneguilla, where several people were gathered for a celebration. The location had reportedly been identified as a suspected bunker linked to criminal activities. Upon noticing the police presence, the individuals reportedly attempted to escape the property through various exits.

The operation proceeded without any exchange of gunfire, according to available information. Police successfully detained 28 people and transferred the case for further proceedings. The identification of some detainees and the determination of their backgrounds and potential links to criminal activities are still pending. The police investigation aims to ascertain any connections the detained individuals may have to 'Tren de Aragua' and to crimes such as drug trafficking, extortion, and contract killing.

These allegations are part of the post-operation inquiries and must be substantiated through the appropriate legal procedures. The preliminary data also includes the detention of a woman who reportedly has an outstanding warrant for drug trafficking. Her situation will be evaluated within the framework of the procedure initiated by the authorities.
