Fell Church resident Andreina Reyes Sojo, also known as ‘Andrea’, is a 19-year-old Venezuelan national accused of being part of the criminal organization ‘Galician’. This group is believed to be responsible for the murders of two sex workers in order to take control of Zepita Street in downtown Lima.
The National Meteorology and Hydrology Service (Senamhi) has reported that there are 298 districts at high and very high risk due to extreme rains. These 24 and 25 cities could experience huaicos, landslides, and other phenomena.
Andrea appears in a video where she is seen arguing for possession of the street with Juan Aníbal Torres Silvano, a 30-year-old transsexual who was kidnapped and shot dead in Carabayllo on February 14. According to the police, the argument between Andrea and Silvano was what prompted the criminal gang of Venezuelans to retaliate against Silvano, whose murder was recorded in a video sent via WhatsApp to strike terror in other sex workers who refuse to pay quotas to these mafias and do not abandon the surroundings of Zepita Jiron.
The subsidy for teachers in the metropolis of Lima who did not receive it in January will only be delivered in March this year, confirmed the head of Minedu.
A few hours before the crime against Torres Silvado, something similar happened against ‘Priscille’, another sex worker, whose body was found with several bullet wounds at Chorrillos. She died shortly after.
According to Colonel Víctor Revoredo, head of the Homicide Investigation Division – Dirincri, the day Andrea and Silvano had the argument, the transsexual worker did not agree to submit to extortion, which consisted of paying between 700 and 800 soles per month.
Residents of the Perla del Sol urbanization have expressed concern about the danger posed to their homes by the flow of water. They have asked for help from the authorities.
Meanwhile, according to the police, Andrea, who appears in the images with a mole, shorts, and a bag and listens to Torres Silvado’s claims, would be “the one who provides the location and selects the way people work in the surroundings of Jirón Zepita.”
Furthermore, Andreina Reyes would have given the instructions to the armed wing of Los Gallegos to put an end to the lives of transsexuals who tried to oppose the extortion.
“In the information report, it is stated that this lady (Andreina Reyes) was intervened months ago by another specialized unit for devoting herself to the collection of quotas in this jurisdiction,” said Colonel Víctor Revoredo, adding that she would be part of the logistics, extortion, and criminal aspects of a remnant of the criminal organization known as ‘Galician’, a line of action of the ‘Train Aragua’.
Alias ‘Andrea’ has been moved to the Dinincri headquarters. Apart from the investigation into the murder of Torres Silvano, she will also be investigated for participating in the murder of 19-year-old Brayan Daniel Aguado Huatuco, who was shot and killed in Chorrillos on February 13.
Based on the accounts of other sex workers, the perpetrators responsible for killing their colleagues are believed to be members of a Venezuelan mafia. This criminal group allegedly aims to force Peruvian workers out of Jiron Chancay, Zepita, and other streets located in the center of Lima. The mafia reportedly sends videos and audio messages containing death threats to intimidate and terrorize their victims.
One of the audio messages reads: “The underworld, the underworld… they all need to leave the Center of Lima, or we will continue killing them one by one…you heard that from your own mom, you fucking fool.”
