89 State and the corresponding responsibilities, through an investigation and trial, in accordance with the 427 rules set out in Articles 8 and 25 of the Convention. The right to truth forms an important part of the 428 reparation for the victim's family and gives rise to an expectation that the State must satisfy. 406. Similarly, the Inter-American Court has ruled that impunity fosters a repetition of human 429 rights violations. In this sense, the impunity for the events under analysis affects members of 23 displaced communities, who were the target of threats and acts against their security and personal integrity. In effect, the participation of State agents in the planning and execution - without having adopted preventive and protective measures in favor of the civilian population - in such a generalized and 430 systematic attack against a group constitutes a crime against humanity. 407. Finally, as regards the displacement, the Commission has already established that the freedom of movement and residence for the members of the displaced communities was limited by a de facto restriction caused by the fear of acts of violence, including the murder of Marino López and the threats suffered by the victims before and after the displacement (see supra IV.C.5). The fact that the State did not undertake a prompt criminal investigation to put an end to the impunity, among other things, 431 kept the displaced persons away from their ancestral lands and impeded the return of all the displaced. 408. Based on the foregoing considerations, the Commission concludes that the State has not provided the necessary measures to comply with its obligation to investigate, try and punish all those responsible for the human rights violations examined in the present report, in conformity with Articles 8.1 and 25 of the American Convention, in conjunction with Article 1.1 of the same treaty, to the prejudice of Marino López's immediate family, the Cacarica Afro-descendant communities associated in CAVIDA, and the women head of household living in Turbo. Similarly, it concludes that the State has not implemented the necessary measures to comply with its obligation to investigate, try and punish those responsible for the acts of torture committed against Marino López, in conformity with Articles 1, 6, and 8 of the InterAmerican Convention to Prevent and Punish Torture, to the prejudice of Marino López. V. CONCLUSIONS 409. Based on the considerations of fact and law contained in the present report, the Commission concludes as follows: 1. The counter-guerilla military operation known as "Operation Genesis" which was planned by agents of the State of Colombia and undertaken jointly with paramilitary groups, was executed without the State's adoption of appropriate preventive and protective measures for the civilian population.
