Based on these conclusions, the Commission recommended the following to the State: 1. Complete swift, thorough, impartial and effective investigations into the violations described in the report. Those investigations are to be conducted by the judicial authorities within a reasonable period of time and without delay, with a view to establishing the facts and punishing those responsible. These measures must also be implemented mindful of the specific nature of the violence that the affected women human rights defenders have endured and the discrimination they suffer by virtue of being both community leaders and women, and the notorious dangers surrounding their work. These investigations must also be geared to identifying all the actors presumably involved in the human rights violations established here, which include members of the paramilitary groups, State agents and all the material and intellectual authors of these events. 2. Adopt urgent and immediate protective measures to ensure the safety of the affected human rights defenders and their family members. These measures must include steps taken to enable their prompt and safe return to Comuna 13. 5
