Peru hitman claims S/15,000 contract to kill journalist-candidate Susy Díaz Polo

A wounded hitman, detained after a police pursuit, told officers he was offered S/15,000 to assassinate Susy Díaz Polo, a journalist and regional-government candidate in Huaraz. The claim is unverified and part of an active investigation; it signals potential organized violence targeting a political figure in Peru's highlands.
