Wave of Deadly Attacks and Abuse Cases Across Peru, Spain and Argentina Drives Arrests and New Leads

Forensic work with city cameras is steering identifications, timelines and court actions.

Overview

  • In Lima’s Miraflores, municipal CCTV traced a victim’s final route before he was shot at least 14 times near Larcomar; documents found at the scene point to Dennis Jesús Sánchez Ramírez as a preliminary ID while Depincri analyzes video, a nearby vehicle and ballistic evidence.
  • In Garrucha (Almería), a preliminary autopsy on a 4‑year‑old indicates prior physical and sexual violence, and the child’s 21‑year‑old mother and her partner remain detained pending a Saturday court appearance as the Guardia Civil clarifies each person’s role.
  • In Santa Fe’s Alto Verde, PDI officers arrested G. J. T. (57) on suspicion of attempted femicide after an arson attack left his ex‑partner with severe burns; prosecutor Jorgelina Moser Ferro ordered the detention and the victim is hospitalized with a reserved prognosis.
  • In González Catán (La Matanza), investigators review security footage showing four suspects linked to a violent home invasion in which a 76‑year‑old woman died and her husband was injured; the case is labeled homicide in the course of robbery and the assailants are at large.
  • In Huancayo, a court issued a 72‑hour preliminary detention order for Fortunato Soto Toralba (81), the prime suspect in the aggravated feminicide of Ermelinda Genoveva Lázaro Huamán, citing forensic indicia and his disappearance as police seek his whereabouts.
