19 suffered a thrombosis, facial paralysis, and half of her body was disabled. Her mother suffered aftereffects and was defensive, nervous, and “drowned” in tears, because it is terrible to lose one’s next of kin in that manner; she died “slowly because [of what happened to her sons],” hoping that they might be found to see them again. [The witness, her mother and her sisters] were financially dependent on her brothers. If her brothers were still alive their lives would be different and they would live somewhat better. She would have continued studying. She, in turn, has aftereffects, as she is continually imagining things regarding torture and she imagines that all those things happened to her brothers. Christmas was anguishing after what happened. Furthermore, she has told no one of what happened to her brothers because she is afraid that the army is linked to the paramilitary. Villavicencio, where she lives, is dangerous, as “one does not know whom one is [talking to] and people are very mistrustful.” For this reason, she says that her brothers are traveling or that they are cousins. She got the SISBEN (Identification and Classification System for Potential Beneficiaries of Social Programs) for displaced persons, and received health care. “The displaced population is inconvenient for the army and the police. [For] them it would be better if no displaced persons were alive, because nobody would open their mouth or say anything.” She has not even been able to see a psychologist due to that same fear. Her sister Luz Mery “lost everything, she liked the countryside, she had her things, her country property, […] she lost her spouse, lost her brothers, and financially she was left with almost nothing.” Afterwards, her sister became quieter and her relationships with people became distant. The witness would like to know why her brothers were taken away and to know what they did to them; to know whether they were killed, and to at least have their remains; for her sisters and for herself this would bring much rest. However, they “hope to see them again.” d) Yur Mary Herrera Contreras, sister of Hugo Fernando Martínez Contreras and Diego Armando Martínez Contreras and stepdaughter of Gustavo Caicedo Rodríguez Her stepfather, Gustavo Caicedo Contreras, “[s]upported [them] in many ways, gave [them] much advice[, was] a very good stepfather, did not mistreat [them], he was very nice[. She] will always be very grateful to him.” Furthermore, when she went to Bogotá her stepfather continued supporting her financially, even when her first spouse died and left her alone with two children. When her sister told her that her stepfather and her two brothers had been killed, she could not believe it and she was out of touch for three years, because “she was afraid that something might happen to the family.” After that period, her mother and her brothers came to Bogotá without her stepfather. Uncertainty affected her family life, the care of her children and her relationship with her spouse, to the point that they separated, as they fought because she was constantly concerned about her mother. Her family has changed very much after the facts: her mother does not go out because she is afraid and she fears that she is being followed or that they are watching her; her brothers are no longer the same
