Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

SUBJECT: CSJ DETERMINES ARAUCA CASE TO BE HANDLED BY
CIVILIAN JUDICIARY
REF: A. BOGOTA 8193
B. BOGOTA 7901
C. BOGOTA 4633
1. On November 11, the Supreme Council of the Judiciary (CSJ)
determined that the Prosecutor General's Office ("Fiscalia")
will maintain control of and continue to investigate the
August 5 deaths of three trade unionists killed in Saravena,
Arauca Department, by members of the Colombian Army's 18th
Brigade.
2. The ruling officially grants jurisdiction over the case to
the civilian justice system, removing any possibility that
the case will be investigated exclusively by the military
itself. Post will continue to monitor the investigation and
report any further developments.
