(hereinafter, “the State” or “Colombia”) presented a report on compliance with the
judgment, in response to the request made in the second operative paragraph of the abovementioned Order (supra Having seen paragraph 2). In brief, the State indicated the
following:
(a)
Regarding the obligation to investigate, it reported that “in relation to the
criminal proceedings against members of the armed forces under the military
criminal justice system, the Office of the Public Prosecutor (Procuraduría General)
appealed for a review before the Supreme Court of Justice. It asked the Supreme
Court to review “the decision taken by the military criminal justice system, and
consequently annul the filing of the proceedings decided by the judge of first
instance on June 18, 1997, which was endorsed in second instance by the Superior
Military Tribunal; and to order the re-opening of the investigation [of several
soldiers], with strict respect for the principle of the ‘natural judge.’” The decision on
the admissibility of this appeal remains pending;
