Protection Measures for the Crime of Domestic Violence - The effectiveness of protection measures from a constitutional point of view. DE

Domestic violence in Colombia is a crime that has been progressive so much so that there was the need for the legislator to create a new criminal type known as FEMINICIDE, however and despite the existence in our legal system for years the regulation of protection measures, they were never effective and only through the judgment T/772/15 issued by our highest court in constitutional matters, It is thanks to this ruling and by virtue of the fact that it places in a position of guarantor all authorities who know of the crime and do not apply a protection measure in favor of the victim, they are applied as a priority, thus avoiding revictimization.
