These two figures summarise both the amount of work involved and the still uncertain outcome of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP) in Colombia, seven years after its inauguration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Seven years since the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/tag\/special-jurisdiction-peace\">Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jep.gov.co\/Sala-de-Prensa\/Paginas\/%C2%A1Hoy-abrimos-las-puertas!.aspx\">opened its doors <\/a>and four years since it unveiled its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/en\/69281-first-colombia-eight-farcs-charged-war-crimes-crimes-against-humanity.html\">first indictment<\/a>, what is the balance of the work carried out by the judicial arm of the innovative transitional justice system that Colombia created after its 2016 peace agreement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its wager is a model where those accused of having been most responsible for atrocious crimes during the country\u2019s 52-year-long armed conflict choose to acknowledge their role, provide truth and directly redress their victims. This allows them to receive more lenient 5-to-8 sentences in a non-prison environment. If they choose not to accept the charges, they go to an adversarial track and, if found guilty at trial, are sentenced to up to 20 years in prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"#infographic\">A glance at the JEP\u2019s numbers<\/a> reveals a paradox about the Colombian model of transitional justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the brighter side, the Acknowledgment Chamber has made great strides in investigating those most responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Colombia, indicting 251 people to date. One third of the accused are former rebels of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and two thirds are former members of the Colombian Army. Nine out of ten defendants have chosen to acknowledge their crimes, according to Justice Info\u2019s count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are some shadows in the JEP\u2019s work that could undermine its legitimacy in the long run. There is not a single top perpetrator sentenced yet. This is despite the high number of indictees, the fact that most of them have already accepted the charges against them, and the fact that since late 2022 three definitive group indictments have been filed (what the JEP calls \u2018resolutions of conclusions\u2019). Of the 20 indictees who have refused to accept the charges, only five have been accused by the tribunal\u2019s prosecutor's office, the Investigation and Indictment Unit (UIA). Only one, Colonel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/en\/136343-colombia-first-transitional-justice-adversarial-trial-opens.html\">Hern\u00e1n Mej\u00eda<\/a>, is currently on trial. Decisions on the thousands of other persons potentially involved in those crimes, but not deemed most responsible, advance slowly. And there is still no news on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/en\/130952-colombia-alternative-sanctions-silence-on-punishment.html\">what exactly the sanctions<\/a> for those who opt for the novel path of acknowledging their responsibility will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"infographic\"><strong>How the investigation, trial and sanction process is going in Colombia<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Below, Justice Info provides you with a visual and quantified summary.
