4 Acacías municipal district, none of these events posing any risk to her physical integrity; and in March, 2005 Ms. Rey received an envelope containing a blackmail from the above Autodefensas, which was forwarded to the Attorney General of the Republic; iii. escorts Luis Adolfo Cárdenas-Barrera, Nemesio Ruiz, and Miguel Hernando Lozano-Alvarado were replaced by other escorts as some problems arose and as they were not very empathic with the beneficiary. The last replacement was made on September 12, 2005. Regarding the complaints filed by the representatives over the sporadic absences of the staff assigned to the above protection plan, it pointed out that the beneficiary is never alone as she is always escorted by two guards, if the third escort has some formalities to go through; iv. regarding the alleged difficulties with the supply of fuel necessary to run the vehicle, the State argued that “[it] has never been denied;” v. though the beneficiary knows her rights and duties regarding the protection measures afforded thereto, she has repeatedly used it in an irregular manner, as when carrying other people or materials in the vehicle assigned for her safety, or when allowing her minor child to travel in the vehicle at all times or traveling without being escorted by the guards assigned thereto.

Notwithstanding, the continuance of the aforesaid protection service is guaranteed, as well as the permanent supervision, control, and monitoring thereof; vi. regarding the request filed by Ms. Islena Rey so that the protection plan be managed from Bogota, the DAS informed that it is incumbent upon Regional Directors to supervise and manage the operation of protection programs, whereby it is not feasible to manage the protection plan afforded thereto or appoint escorts from the city of Bogota; vii. regarding the investigation started by former escort Luis Adolfo Cárdenas-Barrera against Islena Rey due to alleged irregularities in the use of such protection plan, a restraining order was issued on October 26, 2004 for lack of merit to start the criminal proceedings. Furthermore, no appeal was filed, whereby on March 9, 2005 the foregoing order became final and the proceedings were closed. Regarding the manner in which Ms. Rey was served notice thereof, the State pointed out that a communication was delivered thereto through the management of Electrificadora del Meta, where she works, as “the State Attorney did not know her address;” viii. regarding the other beneficiaries, no protection measures have been requested by Mariela de Giraldo and her daughters. Both the DAS and the Police Department have offered to afford personal and residential escort services to Mariela de Giraldo and her daughters, which was rejected. Notwithstanding, an assessment of the risk they
