Cris was a stylist with 15 years experience who worked from home. Her body was found hidden under her bed 5 days after she had been reported missing.

Her partner is considered the prime suspect as reportedly their relationship was characterised by conflict.

The murder of a hairstylist in the district of Ate has shocked the neighbors and relatives of the victim. The body was found under her bed after having disappeared for several days. This tragic event has generated great concern in the community, which remains on alert due to the increasing number of crimes in the area, which shows the ineffectiveness of the state of emergency in Ate.

Transgender stylist [deasdname] Chirinos Álvarez, 54, was found dead on October 16 in her own beauty salon, located on Avenida Los Reyes in the Ate district. Her body was discovered by her relatives, who had been trying to contact her for days. According to initial investigations, Chirinos was murdered on the same day she disappeared, October 11 , and her body was hidden under hers bed, wrapped in a blanket.

Chirinos' family became concerned after he did not respond to calls or messages for several days. When they noticed that her beauty salon remained closed , they decided to go to the premises. After getting no response, they asked the owner of the building to open the door, and that was when they found the body under the bed. The body had a cut on the neck and other injuries which led the police to consider the case as a murder.

The murder weapon was also found inside the building, as well as a handwritten note that is being analyzed by the authorities. In addition, some of the stylist's personal items, such as her cell phone, cosmetics and a television, were missing.

The main suspect in the murder of the hairstylist in Ate is Christopher Mancilla Medina, Chirinos' partner. According to witnesses, the last time the victim was seen was during a meeting with friends and his partner on October 11. Since then, Mancilla has disappeared, and several witnesses saw him leave the room during the early hours of the following day, taking with him some objects, including the living room's television.

Neighbors and friends of the victim say that the relationship between Chirinos and Mancilla was conflictive, with frequent arguments and episodes of violence. These statements have led the authorities to focus on Mancilla as the main suspect in the crime.
