26 In addition, both the prosecutor, Abraham Méndez, and Fernando Penagos, who led the investigation conducted by the Archbishopric’s human rights office, should be given public recognition. Also, an international journalism study grant should be established in the name of Mr. Carpio Nicolle, for journalists from a disadvantaged background. A school should also bear his name. The Carpio Nicolle case demonstrates how weak the administration of justice is. The Army continues to interfere, not only in the Attorney General’s office (Ministerio Público), but also in the Judiciary. It is therefore very important to strengthen the Attorney General’s office, because the necessary changes have not been made and personnel do not have adequate training. Moreover, there is no effective law to protect witnesses and a structural reform of the administration of justice is needed. Furthermore, a ballistics laboratory is needed and the domestic agencies need to reach consensus in order to take advantage of an offer from the United States in this regard. In order to achieve real justice in the case, Mrs. Fischer considered that, at the very least, the following persons, “with their full names,” should receive a moral censure: General José Domingo García Samayoa, General José Luis Quilo, General Víctor Augusto Vázquez Echeverría, former President Ramiro De León, Colonel Ricardo Bustamante, Colonel Mario Alfredo Mérida González, lieutenant colonels and today colonels, Víctor Rosales and Mario Enrique Gómez, Arnoldo Ortiz Moscoso, and the former Director of the Police, Mario René Cifuentes.

Consequently, the witness referred to the original file, he acquired “inputs,” he examined all the proceedings and requested that the case be opened to take evidence, suggesting the type of evidence he considered pertinent. Following the admission of the probative evidence proposed in the individual complaint and by the Attorney General’s office, he devoted himself to monitoring that this probative evidence was obtained. During the reconstruction of the facts, he found it anomalous that the lawyers of the accused and the civilian patrolmen traveled in vehicles of military zone No. 20 that were evidently armored. The civilian patrolmen conducted threatening activities during the procedure, taking the data of the vehicle in which Mr. Méndez García was traveling. Subsequently, prior to the day of the trial, when most of the proposed probative evidence had been substantiated, an attack was made on his life. The prosecutor responsible for investigating this attack did not probe into it;
