Four people have been arrested in Peru on suspicion of taking the lives of dozens of people in order to sell their fat and tissue for cosmetic uses in Europe.
The Republic of Peru is a country in western South America. It is bordered on the north by Ecuador and Colombia, on the east by Brazil, on the southeast by Bolivia, on the south by Chile, and on the west by the Pacific Ocean.
This Peruvian gang allegedly targeted people on remote roads, luring them with fake job offers before extracting their fat to sell it for US$15,850 (S$22,027) a litre.
Other suspected gang members, including two Italian nationals, remain on the loose.
The Peruvian police claimed that the gang could be behind the disappearances of more than 50 people in their country.
Police said they suspect the fat was sold to cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies in Europe, but currently do not have any evidences.
