Los delitos de violencia psicologica y el principio de celeridad procesal

Abstract

sychological violence crimes are violent acts that undermine the dignity and life of every person. These crimes are repetitive because they cause internal damage to the victim, the aggressor takes advantage of its power and causes vulnerability of the person receiving the violence. Psychological violence not only receives the woman because she is more delicate but all the people who live in her family; since there are families in which machismo stands out and are those who take authority and power over their victims. Until 2014 psychological violence was considered a violation, but since it was approved the new COIP Organic Code Integral Criminal typifies as a crime which has been considered as blows to self-esteem through insults, threats, humiliation, scorn or deprivation authoritarian of freedom, a situation aggravated by the lack of a quick response in handling these processes. The principle of celerity is constituted by various mechanisms that seeks an expedited, fast and successful state action to avoid delay or impunity in cases submitted to it, in order to reduce impunity and procedural burden in our country, which it does not happen in the Fiscalía Especializada en Violencia Intrafamiliari located in Ambato, where we find the serious problem that in most cases are submitted to it but never punished either by abandonment or the complainant, the difficulty to show that in their cases the existing or the too extensive procedures which must be met in order to obtain a judgment psychological violence. Mostly we can say is that 95% are women who for one reason or another leave the causes and this implies that the administrator of justice by not knowing of the existence of the whistleblower cause breach of celerity in the administration of justice and for this reason the cause is in neutral state, until the file is declared because there is a legal impediment to their pursuit.
