he had been bound over for investigation, as well as the indictment of Alejandro Cárdenas for the offense of sexual violence. 129 61.

Investigation of the 6th Special Prosecutor for omissions in the criminal proceedings 62. On February 29, 2011, Criminal Judicial Advocate 19 issued an official letter addressed to The 49th Special Prosecutor of the NHRU, ordering that certified copies of the case file be sent to the criminal and disciplinary authorities for proceedings against the 6th Special Prosecutor, Gustavo Adolfo Reyes Leyva. This was for the purpose of investigating him “for the omissions recorded in the criminal proceedings brought in connection with the heinous acts perpetrated against Mrs. GINETH BEDOYA LIMA.” In this document, the Judicial Advocate said that she had corroborated “the investigative and evidentiary failures and shortcomings of the criminal case,” pointing out that for eleven years no positive results were obtained, even though “the evidentiary material needed to establish the criminal acts and identify their perpetrators was present in the case.” 131 63. The Judicial Advocate even stated that, “the incoherent, disjointed, and slow actions [...] have undoubtedly compromised the honorable task of administering justice entrusted to the Office of the Prosecutor General,” pointing out among them, “the fact that analyses and inquiries were not made into the telephone records of the calls made to and from the cell phones that were used in the kidnapping,” which no longer exist because they have expired, and because the cell phone companies that were operating at the time of the events have been replaced. She also stressed that “the fact that the State’s burden of proof has been shifted to the victim of the aggravated offenses under investigation, to the detriment of her own dignity and in a manner that is excessively re-victimizing, is a serious and regrettable evidentiary defect.” She noted the numerous interrogatories to which the victim has been subjected, which have been incorporated into the case file “in a disjointed and wholly and utterly mismanaged fashion.” Finally, the Judicial Advocate pointed out that on November 26, 2011, it was learned that “the forensic medical report first issued after the events occurred was lost from the case file,” and that “the investigators initially assigned to the case and who obtained first-hand information were forced out by shadowy forces, without being heard from in the proceedings.” 132 64. On August 2, 2011, the investigation was reassigned to the Unit’s Prosecution Office. Through a resolution from the NHRU-IHL Sixth Prosecutor’s Office, the pretrial investigation was opened on August 5, 2011. On March 25, 2015, Jineth Bedoya received notice of the decision issued by Chamber 41 of the Superior Court of the Judicial District, according to which: […] the above-captioned investigation against Mr. GUSTAVO ADOLFO REYES LEYVA (Special Prosecutor 6 of the Human Rights and IHL Unit), for the alleged offense of MALFEASANCE BY OMISSION, in which you are named as the victim, was CLOSED by this Prosecutor’s Office, on the grounds that THE CONDUCT DOES NOT MEET THE DEFINITION OF A CRIME, as established in Article 79 of Law 906 of 2004. 133 E.
