Peru: 1,000+ child sexual abuse cases in Awajún/Wampis areas unaddressed by justice system

Since 2014, nearly 1,000 reports of child sexual abuse and gender-based violence in Peru's Awajún and Wampis communities have not been processed by the justice system, with some estimates reaching 1,400. The lack of judicial response has triggered outrage, especially after cases involving 3-year-old girls infected with HIV. This highlights systemic impunity and institutional failure in indigenous regions.
