The remains of Jainer Pinedo, known as the ‘Dancing Engineer’, arrived this Monday, August 19, in Iquitos on a humanitarian flight by the Peruvian Air Force (FAP), which responded to the request for help from the mother of the deceased influencer, who died last Sunday after suffering from dengue.
“The FAP has taken note of this request and has taken appropriate action; therefore, we are sending a C26 plane from Chiclayo to Iquitos. We would like to extend our condolences to the family.“said Commander Victor Vela, Deputy Director of Information for the FAP.
As we recall, Pinedo’s mother requested a humanitarian flight to transport her son’s remains to Iquitos.
“As a mother, I ask for a humanitarian flight to be able to take my son to his homeland, which is Iquitos. My son died in the morning, and since today is Sunday, we cannot make any arrangements. I ask for a humanitarian flight, please, perhaps with the FAP, some airline, to get to Iquitos so that his friends can be with him, at least for one night.“, he told Canal N.
Pinedo Vargas rose to fame on social media thanks to his charisma and talent for dancing, which allowed him to win the affection of thousands of followers who christened him the ‘Dancing Engineer’. His ability to combine his knowledge as an engineer with his passion for dancing made him a much-loved figure, especially in the Lambayeque region, where he lived.
