Overview

• The Peruvian crime boss was arrested in San Lorenzo after a months‑long intelligence operation coordinated with Paraguayan authorities and Interpol.
• He is being held at the Martín Mendoza maximum‑security prison in Emboscada as officials process evidence seized in the raid, including multiple phones and false identity documents.
• Paraguayan investigators said Moreno tried to offer up to US$1 million to avoid arrest, and authorities are evaluating proceedings for document fraud alongside the extradition track.
• Peru has filed extradition paperwork and is pressing for administrative expulsion as a faster alternative, with prison authorities preparing to request his placement at the Callao naval high‑security facility upon return.
• Peru’s justice minister said a collaborator identified “two or three” police officers who allegedly leaked operations to Moreno, triggering internal investigations into possible collusion.
