Action Blueprint For Human Rights in Colombia Zero Tolerance for Human Rights violators in the Armed Forces Suspend from active duty all security forces personnel charged in criminal or disciplinary investigations into human rights violations and links with paramilitary groups. The President should dismiss armed forces members responsible for such violations. This has been reiterated by international bodies.
Similar procedures exist in the United States.
The Colombian President has the authority. Zero Tolerance for Army-Allied Human Rights violators Enforce outstanding arrest warrants against paramilitary members implicated in human rights violations. Anyone with links or providing support to paramilitary groups should be held accountable before the law for their illegal activities. This has been urged by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. Zero Tolerance for Impunity Judicial processes about human rights violations must occur in the civilian justice system.
