Naval High School case: court orders four months of preventive detention for six teenagers investigated for sexual assault

The Third Family Court of Lima has ordered four months of preventive detention for six adolescents from the Liceo Naval Almirante Guise. The measure follows an investigation into the alleged group sexual assault of a 16-year-old classmate while the group was returning from an event on a bus.

The judicial decision mandates that the six minors remain in custody while the investigation into the alleged incident proceeds. The case has drawn attention due to the involvement of students from a naval educational institution.
