This case unleashed a wave of threats between Peruvians and Venezuelans, said EFE, which has also left other victims such as Wilmer Jaimes Colmenares, a citizen of Venezuela who was thrown from a third floor in Peru.
From that moment, criminals of both nationalities published videos and messages on social networks with mutual threats. For the same reason, leaders of Venezuelans organized in Peru have called for restraint and asked that this issue be dealt with from the police point of view, since the majority of Peruvians and Venezuelans live peacefully in the country.
