Regarding the possible participation of Mr. Pabón Díaz, on April 8, 1997, the UDH ordered to
carry out proceedings in order to find him.92 Likewise, police officer Bohórquez was taken a statement.93 As
regards the alleged loss of the gun, the General Prosecutor’s Office carried out proceedings in the visit of 1997
to the Mayor’s Office of Kennedy 94 and in 1998 to the Judicial Unit of the town of Kennedy. 95 The IACHR
observes that, as opposed to what was indicated by officer Bohórquez before the PGN, the General Prosecutor’s
Office was not able to confirm that the loss of the gun which was in Mr. Pabón’s possession had been duly
reported. 96 On December 18, 2008, the DAS informed the General Prosecutor’s Office that Mr. Pabón was
convicted on the charges of counterfeit of public office and illegal possession of weapons, being released on
August 23, 2002.97 The IACHR understands that it was not possible to ascertain Mr. Pabón’s whereabouts.

Finally, as regards the search of the alleged victim, the General Prosecutor’s Office requested
the obtaining of the ten-print card. 98 In 2011, it requested information about a possible exhumation 99 and
verified the existence of a missing person form with the information of the alleged victim in the National
Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences100.

From the information available to date, the investigation remains at a preliminary stage.
3.
Action of direct reparation before the Contentious-Administrative jurisdiction.
51.
On May 19, 1995, Ms. Vergara filed an action of direct reparation against the Nation, the
Ministry of Defense and the National Army before the Third Section of the Administrative Court of
Cundinamarca.101 Such claim was rejected in the first instance on October 30, 2001, by considering that the
forced disappearance by the public authority was not demonstrated102 and was appealed by the claimants. On
June 23, 2011, the Council of State confirmed the first degree judgement because there was not “evidence in
the file to establish that the disappearance of Mr. Pedro Julio Movilla Galarcio might have been carried out by
members of the accused public entity.”103
