Summary: | This work describes the contradictions, gaps and legal obstacles that have presented the Bolivian legal rules and some international standards regarding substantiation and resolution of judgment of responsibility for crimes against humanity, committed by senior officers of State. Specifically, it aims to show the ineffectiveness of the principle of legal enforceability, in the substantiation and resolution of the trial for responsibilities against former president Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, -accused for crimes against humanity for the slaughter of October 2003-, leaving on hold victims and relatives of the dead who require prompt investigation and prosecution and repair damages. We divide the work in two phases: the first, covering the first demonstrations and legal conquests to remedy regulatory shortcomings and the second, a description of international legal standards that make difficult a prompt trial responsibilities, and then we provide ideas that can solve this legal problem.
