Peruvian Bureaucracy Hinders Repatriation of Murdered Venezuelan Mother's Remains

In a tragic turn of events in Lima, Peru, friends of Andreína Farías, a Venezuelan mother who was murdered, are facing unexpected obstacles in their attempt to bring her remains back to her family in Venezuela. Makel Buenapico, a friend of the victim, stated, "They told me it wasn't possible yet; we couldn't take her body because there needs to be authorization from the prosecutor." Despite securing a power of attorney from Farías's family, the process has been delayed, adding to the emotional distress for those involved. Adding to the complexity, the report highlights the cost of repatriation and the need for the prosecutor's approval for cremation. However, there is a positive development: Peruvian police have apprehended one suspect in Farías's murder, offering a glimmer of hope for justice. The case underscores the challenges faced by families navigating international legal procedures during times of grief.
