A notorious South American crime boss, Gianfranco Torres-Navarro, wanted in connection with at least 23 killings in Peru, was apprehended in New York this week. Torres-Navarro, 38, led the gang known as 'Los Killers de Ventanilla y Callao,' which engaged in violent activities to extort construction companies in a region along Peru's Pacific coast.
Accompanying Torres-Navarro was his girlfriend, Mishelle Sol Ivanna Ortíz Ubillús, described as his romantic partner, lieutenant, and cashier. The couple had fled Peru after being suspected of a fatal attack on a retired police officer and a municipal employee.
