Peruvian National Police (PNP) have officially denied that a vehicle used in a recent kidnapping and murder in Trujillo belongs to the institution. According to a police statement, the vehicle in question is privately owned and its license plate, EFP-176, was illegally cloned. Authorities claim the legitimate police unit bearing the same plate number remains operational in San Gabán-Juliaca. The PNP asserts there is currently no evidence linking its agents or vehicles to the crime. This denial follows investigations into the use of a vehicle connected to a high-profile case of abduction and homicide. The police are actively pursuing the investigation to identify the perpetrators and uncover the full extent of the cloning operation. Further updates will be provided as the investigation unfolds.
