Peru court orders 4-month pretrial detention for ex-officer in ATM fraud case

A Peruvian court imposed four months of preventive detention on former police officer Bryan Soplapuco Piedra, who is accused of taking a woman's bank card at an ATM in New Chimbote. The case is at an early investigative stage; the detention is procedural, not a conviction. It signals routine judicial handling of a local fraud allegation.
