- Four suspects are in custody on aggravated homicide charges as authorities seek additional members of the gang, including an alleged Peruvian capo linked to Villa 1‑11‑14 and Zavaleta.
- The security minister said the torture and killings were live‑streamed to a closed Instagram group in a disciplinary display ordered by the gang’s leader, a claim now under investigation.
- Forensic findings indicate extreme torture, sexual violence and dismemberment, and investigators cite premeditation evidenced by a pit dug hours before the crime and a burned Chevrolet Tracker with an adulterated plate.
- PROCUNAR joined the case, which remains under secrecy of sumario, and officials report ongoing raids and searches while provincial leaders call attention to cross‑jurisdiction narco operations.
