Resumen
El caso Bedoya Lima y Otra vs. Colombia, resuelto por la Corte Interamericana de
Derechos Humanos (Corte IDH), es relevante por visibilizar la violencia sexual
ejercida en contra de mujeres periodistas en contextos de conflictos armados no
internacionales. En este caso se determina que el Estado de Colombia es
responsable por la vulneración de derechos a la integridad, libertad personal, honra y
dignidad, libertad de expresión y garantías y protección judicial en perjuicio de Jineth
Bedoya y su madre. El análisis jurídico radica en determinar si la Corte IDH atribuyó
adecuadamente la responsabilidad internacional del Estado colombiano,
considerando el contexto estructural de violencia de género y las afectaciones
diferenciadas que sufrían las mujeres periodistas en el marco del conflicto.
Primero, se aborda la inacción del Estado frente al peligro constante que atravesaba
Jineth Bedoya, lo que implicó el incumplimiento del deber de prevención, protección
especial y debida diligencia reforzada. Segundo, se evalúa si es correcto el uso del
enfoque de interseccionalidad realizado por la Corte IDH, y se analiza si habría
resultado más pertinente considerar el caso desde la vulnerabilidad especial derivada
del género y el contexto particular. Tercero, se evidencia que los actos de violencia
sexual deberían haber sido calificados como crímenes de lesa humanidad, debido a
que fueron parte de un patrón sistemático de ataque contra la prensa colombiana. Por
último, resulta relevante analizar la herramienta procesal de la recusación utilizada
por el Estado como una forma más de revictimización en perjuicio de Jineth Bedoya.
The case Bedoya Lima et al. v. Colombia, decided by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (ICHR), is significant for shedding light on sexual violence against female journalists in te context of non-international armed conflicts. In this case, the ICHR determined that the State of Colombia was responsible for the violation of the rights to integrity, personal liberty, honor and dignity, freedom of expression, and judicial guarantees and protection, to the detriment of Jineth Bedoya and her mother. The legal analysis focuses on whether the ICHR adequately attributed international responsibility to the Colombian State, considering the structural context of genderbased violence and the differentiated impact suffered by women journalists within the framework of the conflict. First, the ICHR addresses the State’s inaction in the face of the constant danger faced by Jineth Bedoya, which entailed a breach of the duty of prevention, special protection, and heightened due diligence. Second, it evaluates whether the ICHR’s application of an intersectionality approach was appropriate, and whether it would have been more pertinent to consider the case from the perspective of special vulnerability derived from gender and the specific context. Third, it is noted that the acts of sexual violence should have been classified as crimes against humanity, as they formed part of a systematic pattern of attacks against the colombian press. Finally, it is relevant to analyze the procedural tool of recusal used by the State as an additional form of revictimization against Jineth Bedoya.
