Peru has experienced an uptick in organised crime, including extortion, a trend analysts link to government corruption.
About 33 people have been injured in a nightclub bombing in the coastal town of Trujillo in northern Peru, with minors among those hurt in the explosion.
Authorities say that the attack took place in the early morning hours on Saturday, with an explosion ripping through the club.
The circumstances of the blast are still being investigated, but the bombing took place in a region that has been hard hit by an uptick in organised crime, a source of growing concern in Peru.
At least five of those injured are in serious condition, according to the executive director of the Trujillo Health Network, Gerardo Florian Gomez. Three of the injured were minors, including one victim who is 16 years old and two more who are 17 years old.
