It is also on record that the State provided technical and financial support for the implementation of the different stages of the return to the area,261 preparing the initial conditions for the return by planting crops and hiring boats and, subsequently, by housing projects, production projects and other activities to assist in the resettlement. Also, in September 2000, 201 persons were transferred from Bahía Cupica to Turbo for family reunification purposes, and humanitarian assistance was provided to 10 families who returned voluntarily from Jaqué (Panama) to Nueva Vida in 2004.262 Lastly, actions were taken in the Cacarica river valley to provide attention to the communities, and one “Nueva Vida” family benefited from them.263 128. However, the representatives and the victims indicated that the Government only complied partially with the agreements it had made, 264 and that the housing construction project in these settlements, started in October 2000, had proceeded very slowly.

In addition, as it has been noted (supra para. 121), the information presented by the different State entities reveals that the Cacarica communities, in particular those of “Esperanza en Dios” and “Nueva Vida,” continued to be subjected to threats, harassment and acts of violence by members of the armed groups.268 Between 1996 and 2002, 106 persons belonging 261 Cf.
