    Extortion payments collected in cash from victims is the main criminal offense in La Libertad, Peru. Victims are primarily people in the transport sector, who are threatened with attack or murder if they do not pay. Criminal organizations in the region can collect over 12 million soles each through extortion. Some gangs have used women and children to collect extortion payments, such as when Adelia Varas Vega of the criminal group "Los Pulpos" ordered her daughter to collect an envelope with 5,000 soles, resulting in Varas Vega's arrest and imprisonment. While police have dismantled 13 of the bloodiest criminal organizations in the region and imprisoned at least 150 criminals, extortion remains a serious problem

    I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT ORGANIZED CRIME

    IN OUR REGION: LA LIBERTAD


    A RECENT SURVEY FROM NATIONAL INSTITUTE
    OF STATISTICS AND INFORMATION SCIENCE
    SHOWS
    THAT
    COLLECT
    EXTORTION
    PAYMENTS IN CASH DIRECTLY FROM THEIR
    VICTIMS IS THE PRINCIPAL OFFENSE IN LA
    LIBERTAD.
    THE VICTIMS ARE MAINLY PEOPLE FROM THE
    TRANSPORT
    SECTOR.
    IF
    THEY DON'T PAY TOMORROW, THEY WILL BE
    ATTACKED OR MURDERED
    EACH CRIMINAL ORGANISATIONS CAN COLLECT
    OVER 12 MILLION SOLES. WORST OF ALL GANG
    MEMBERS
    SOMETIMES USE WOMEN
    AND CHILDREN TO
    COLLECT EXTORTION
    PAYMENTS.
    FOR EXAMPLE LAS YEAR ADELIA VARAS VEGA
    MEMBER OF THE CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION
    CALLED LOS PULPOS WAS FOUND GUILTY OF
    ORDERED HER DAUGHTER TO COLLECT THE
    ENVELOPE CONTAINING 5OOO SOLES. SHE WAS
    ARRESTED FOR THIS CRIME AND SEND TO
    PRISON.

    THIRTEEN OF THE
    CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION
    BLODDIER OF THE REGION HAVE BEEN
    DISMANTLED BY POLICE AND AT LEAST 150
    criminals WERE SENT TO PRISON. HOWEVER
    EXTORTION IS STILL THE WORST PROBLEM.
