About this statute

This provision identifies Law 975 of 2005, which concerns the reincorporation of members of organized armed groups outside the law and related humanitarian agreements, and begins Chapter I on principles and definitions. This article states the law’s purpose: to facilitate peace processes and the individual or collective reintegration to civilian life of members of unlawful armed groups, while guaranteeing victims’ rights to truth, justice, and reparation. This article says the law covers investigation, prosecution, sanctions, and judicial benefits for certain people linked to illegal armed groups who demobilize and help national reconciliation. This article defines “alternativity” as a benefit that suspends execution of a sentence and replaces it with an alternative penalty, subject to the law’s conditions. The national reconciliation process under this law must promote victims’ rights to truth, justice, and reparation, and respect due process and judicial guarantees for the accused.
