1.In geographical terms, within the framework of the national security policy in the Magdalena Medio region was constituted as a favourable scenario for the development of strategies of counterinsurgency, irregular warfare. The foregoing, allowed the conditions necessary to camouflage the criminal actions ordered and executed by agents of the State, facilitating the development of behaviors that violate human rights and international humanitarian law against the civilian population. All this to show a justification for the continuation of the war and a nearby military victory, coupled with a consideration of revenues and awards in military, economic and political terms.
2.In the cases, the previous selection of the victims by the agents of the State was evidenced, reflected in previous follow-ups, stigmatization and harassment that would eventually materialize in the execution of victimizing acts. At the same time, acts of stigmatization and persecution continued with the families of the victims, in a process of revictimization in order to keep the crimes in impunity.
3.In the official discourse and offered statements to media as well as the provided in the judicial proceedings, remained constant show for victims of violations of human rights and breaches of international law Humanitarian, such as "low in combat" or “collaborators or supporters of the guerrillas” failing. Except in cases where the identification with one of the two previous categories was an "impossible" arose as civilians affected in military errors, or collateral damage of their actions.
4.Relationship of the facts presented at the widespread massacre of the Northeast is that the connivance of institutions of the State with organizations paramilitars, was developed in the interest of hiding the direct participation of State agents in the crimes against humanity. Thus, while some supported tasks of planning, intelligence, transport and safeguard, the others ran and appealing the authorship of the fact.
Regarding the massacre extended categorical proposal, it is necessary to further investigate other cases that may have a causal link in this criminal conduct. Is that to say, facts that so far are analyzed as individual cases, to be studied collectively, could show the interest in reducing the impact media for their actions, and this is the strategy of collective extermination of the population.
We believe that it is pertinent to deepen or reopen investigations carried out or filed previously in the cases presented here; As well as carrying out actions aimed at investigating in new processes the truth and those responsible for the victimizing acts found in total impunity.
