Peru detains woman for illegal TikTok newborn adoption; trafficking probe launched

Peruvian authorities detained a woman in Ayacucho for allegedly arranging an informal adoption of a newborn via TikTok, with the handover planned at a Lima hospital. The Prosecutor's Office has activated urgent protective measures for the infant. The case signals potential gaps in child-protection enforcement around social-media-facilitated adoptions, though details on the trafficking network remain unclear.
