Overview
- The Ministry of Women and Vulnerable Populations and the Interior Ministry launched the campaign on Monday by posting 31 fugitives on the Programa de Recompensas portal to accelerate their capture.
- The official list with names and photos is available at recompensas.pe and the government is soliciting confidential tips via the free hotline 0-800-40-007.
- Published reward amounts vary across releases, with listings showing individual offers ranging from S/10,000 up to S/80,000 to anyone who provides verifiable information leading to an arrest.
- Officials said the move responds to persistent feminicide levels — the MIMP reported about 2,226–2,229 cases since 2009 and 49 cases with feminicide characteristics so far in 2026, with 56% of victims aged 18–29 and over 60% killed by partners or ex-partners.
- Ministers urged public, local authorities and media participation to break patterns of impunity and noted the campaign could prompt faster prosecutions while easing the long-term harm done to victims’ families, many of whom left dependent children.
