EXCLUSIVE — Violent gang members linked to the international crime syndicate Tren de Aragua were swept up by Peruvian law enforcement during a human trafficking sting in northern Lima this past weekend.
Behind the scenes, Aerial Recovery, a U.S. nonprofit organization mobilizing military veterans, was helping empower the teams and ensure the victims received necessary care and treatment.
The Peru National Police, public prosecutor’s office, and other organs of government and law enforcement conducted raids from late Saturday night into Sunday morning, arresting 10 alleged operatives of La Guerrilla Pobre — a gang operating as a faction of Tren de Aragua.
