4 * * * 9. That the representatives alleged that a plan exists to murder Enrique Petro, inhabitant of the Curbaradó humanitarian zones, together with “members of the national and international community who accompany him.” The representatives indicated that this plan has been preceded by threatening military raids in several humanitarian zones and by the destruction of the signs identifying the communities that inhabit them. In this regard, the representatives stated that the threats to Mr. Petro Hernández continued, that the State’s response had not been addressed specifically against those responsible, and that they were unaware of any measures taken, or of the individualization and eventual prosecution of those responsible. In addition, the representatives reported several events that had occurred between April and September 2006, and denounced before the Inter-American Court various acts of harassment and coercion against the beneficiaries of the provisional measures allegedly carried out by different palm oil firms, apparently supported by alleged paramilitary groups and by the Police. According to the representatives, the main purpose of these acts was to force the inhabitants of the Communities to abandon their lands. 10. That, in this regard, the State has reported that measures have been coordinated to counteract the acts denounced by the representatives; these measures include search and inspection operations in the urban and rural areas of Belén de Bajirá. In addition, the State indicated that it had requested that, in the event such acts were corroborated, procedures should be implemented to individualize and prosecute the members of the criminal band that perpetrated them. In addition, it reported that the Commander of the Urabá Police Department, through the Bajirá Police Station, had adopted all pertinent actions to guarantee the life and safety of Mr. Petro Hernández and his family. The State also indicated that, the procedure of receiving the testimony of Mr. Petro Hernández had been conducted at the Belén de Bajirá Police Station, and he had stated that “there had been no threats against his family; he had merely heard comments that there would be an attempt on his life,” and he had not reported these facts to any State security agency. 11. That, in response to the events reported by the representatives, the President considers it pertinent that both the representatives and the State submit further information in this regard, in order to guarantee the adequate and effective protection of those who allege that their life and safety are in danger. * * * 12. That the Court ordered the State, pursuant to the provisions of the American Convention, to grant special protection to the so-called “humanitarian refuge zones” established by the communities composed of the Community Council of the Jiguamiandó and the families of the Curbaradó and, accordingly, to adopt the necessary measures to ensure they receive all the humanitarian aid sent to them (supra first having seen paragraph). In this regard, the State has referred to the “At-risk Communities Project,” which “is intended to increase the level of the safeguard of human rights in these communities, strengthening the capacity of State institutions to provide protection, at the local, regional and national level, and bolstering the relations between the communities and the authorities.” The State reported that Urabá was one of the five areas chosen to implement this project; this area included, among other places, the municipality of Carmen de Darién, where the communities that are the beneficiaries of these provisional measures have settled.
