The Peruvian government, led by President Keiko Fujimori, has been facing criticism due to an increase in crime, particularly in the city of Trujillo. The government has responded by approving a new General Government Policy and requesting legislative faculties to strengthen its fight against crime. The Prime Minister, Luis Galarreta, has stated that six months is a reasonable time to see concrete results in the reduction of homicides and extortions. The government has cited the arrest of members of the 'Los Pulpos' gang as an example of its progress. However, the government's strategy has been criticized for being slow and ineffective, with some calling for the resignation of the National Police's General Commander, Óscar Arriola.
