38 ordered the annulment of the judicial and police records of the six defendants who benefited from the amnesty. 124 The application of the amnesty law was endorsed by the Senior Prosecutor for Criminal Matters and was also confirmed by the First Transitional Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice of Peru by order of January 14, 1997. 125 122. On March 14, 2001, the Inter-American Court issued a judgment in the Case of Barrios Altos v. Peru, in which it found that Amnesty Laws No. 26.479 and No. 26.492 were incompatible with the American Convention and, consequently, lacked legal effect. Subsequently, in its interpretation of that judgment, the Court considered that, “given the nature of the violation that Amnesty Laws 26479 and 26492 constitute, the effects of the decision in the judgment [of March 14, 2001] are general in nature.” 126 E.5. Reopening of the case in the Military and the Ordinary Jurisdictions 123. Based, inter alia, on the judgment of the Inter-American Court in the Case of Barrios Altos v. Peru (supra para. 122), on June 28, 2002, the Plenary Chamber of the Supreme Council of Military Justice declared the Supreme Decree of June 16, 1995 null and void and ordered that the case be reopened in execution of the judgment. 127 There is no record in the file of any subsequent action in this regard. Meanwhile, in the ordinary jurisdiction, on June 24, 2004, the Huancavelica Provincial Criminal Prosecutor requested that the Prosecutor General reopen Criminal File No. 1993-027, and refer the case files to the Supreme Court of Justice so that, subject to the opinion of its Chief Prosecutor, it would order the reopening of the proceedings. 128 On June 22, 2005, the Superior Mixed Prosecutor’s Office of Huancavelica considered that the Mixed Chamber of the Huancavelica Superior Court of Justice should declare null and void the decision to final archive the proceedings in application of Amnesty Laws Nos. 26.479 and 26.492, and, in accordance with Article 151 of the Organic Law of the Judiciary, reopen the case. 129 124. On July 14, 2005, the Mixed Chamber of the Superior Court of Huancavelica declared null and void the decision of July 4, 1995 (supra para. 121) and ordered the case to be reopened and to join it to the preliminary investigation assigned No. 808-2002, which had been initiated after the CVR’s Final Report for the same facts. On August 26, 2005, said chamber reiterated the trial order issued on July 3, 1994, which had not been executed (supra para. 116). Given that the defendants had absconded, it withheld the date for starting the oral proceedings, until they could be located and/or placed at the disposal of the judicial authority. 130 On November 10, 2005, the Public Prosecutor’s Office in Huancavelica indicated that the criminal proceeding should continue from the stage it had reached when the decision of July 4, 1995, was issued and, consequently, that a date should be set for the hearing. 131 124 Cf.
