The three detainees would be members of the criminal gang 'Los Atorrantes de Villa'. General Ricardo Espinoza, head of the Criminal Investigation Directorate (Dirincri), clarified that the suspects travelled to Lima after the homicide. Espinoza added that the hired assassin to carry out the crime would have charged two thousand soles for the job.
The record of 'JJ' includes convictions for aggravated robbery, violence against women and drug micro-trafficking, among other offences.
