Peru: Mayor tested a Taser on his personal advisor
An unusual incident took place in the capital of Peru, Lima, where the mayor decided to demonstrate the effectiveness of new electric shock devices (Tasers) intended for the local police on the body of his personal advisor. The documentation of the event sparked a wave of widespread reactions on social media.
According to the channel Труха⚡️Україна, known for its diverse coverage, the mayor claimed that the advisor agreed to the experiment "voluntarily." The channel added in a sarcastic tone that the advisor probably preferred to agree rather than suffer the fate of his predecessor, who refused the mayor's request. This report received widespread exposure with over 211,000 views.
At the same time, the channel Реальна Війна | Україна | Новини, which emphasizes the critical aspect regarding political leaders, reported that following "public resonance and dissatisfaction" in the country, the mayor was forced to explain that it was a case of full consent. In the circulated videos, the device appeared to be very effective as the advisor "fell for the count", as noted in the report.
Additional channels such as Батальйон «Монако» | Україна | Новини and ЗСУ ДВІЖ △💪🇺🇦 noted that the move was intended to showcase the capabilities of the new equipment in the fight against crime, but presented the event as a question about the "working methods" of the local authority. The channel Україна⚡️Новини⚡️Війна concluded that the mayor's stated goal was to prove the equipment's effectiveness, without directly addressing the ethical debate the act provoked.
