Informe del Agente fiscal del Distrito de Bogotá al Procurador

Abstract

The image contains news about the Report of the Fiscal Agent of the Bogotá Circuit to the State Attorney General. This report details the Ministry's activities during the second half of the year. The alternation in the position of the Fiscal Agency between Dr. Emilio Hamon and the author of the report stands out. Difficulties in obtaining statistical data are noted due to the judges' overwork. The significant increase in hearings in both civil and criminal cases is reported, attributed to national trials and impunity for criminals. The inefficiency of judicial procedures is criticized and legal reforms are proposed to improve the judicial system, highlighting the need to punish impunity and improve jury selection. In addition, the approval by the Municipality of Bogotá of an agreement to finance a police force for the city is mentioned. The report proposes the construction of prisons and offices in all districts, adequate remuneration for judicial employees and the selection of competent people. News published in the State Registry.
