CHAPTER I
Principles and definitions
Article 8. Right to reparation. The victims’ right to reparation includes the actions taken for restitution, compensation, rehabilitation, satisfaction, and guarantees of non-repetition.
Restitution is defined as actions that seek to return the victim to the situation prior to the
crime.
Indemnity is defined as compensation for the damages caused by the crime. Rehabilitation is defined as actions aimed at the recovery of victims who suffer physical and psychological traumas as a result of the crime.
Satisfaction or moral compensation is defined as actions aimed at reestablishing the dignity of the victim and disseminating the truth about what happened.
Guarantees of non-repetition include, among others, the demobilization and dismantling of the illegal armed groups.
Symbolic reparation is understood to mean any benefit granted the victims or the community in general aimed at ensuring the preservation of the historical memory, the non-repetition of the victimizing acts, the public acceptance of the acts, public forgiveness, and reestablishing the victims’ dignity.
Collective reparation should be geared to the psychosocial rebuilding of the populations affected by the violence. This mechanism is established especially for the communities affected by the occurrence of acts of systematic violence.
The competent judicial authorities shall set the individual, collective, or symbolic reparations as appropriate, in the terms of this law.
