Singer Soraya Nieto was brutally attacked with a glass bottle during a performance in Chumbes, a bustling area in Peru's Huamanga Province, on August 8. The harrowing incident was captured on video and quickly went viral, drawing harsh criticism from Nieto's fans. Subsequently, she opted to cancel her upcoming concerts. Law enforcement authorities claim to have identified the perpetrator, who remains at large.
The assailant, reportedly infuriated that Nieto's show extended beyond its scheduled duration, hurled a glass bottle directly at the singer, causing her to suffer multiple facial injuries. She sustained several minor cuts, a bruise on her left eyelid, significant swelling around her eyebrow, and a deep wound below her lower lip that necessitated stitches. Miraculously, the force of the impact shattered her glasses but did not impair her vision.
In a statement shared on Instagram, Nieto expressed her gratitude to the witnesses who came to her aid immediately after the attack, stating that she is deeply appreciative of their compassion. She lamented the absence of support from her fellow musicians, who continued performing on another stage despite the incident. Nieto alleged that they failed to offer assistance after the attack, leaving her to fend for herself amid her injuries.
