Colombia, que est\u00e1 sufriendo de un gran aumento de denuncias sobre extorsi\u00f3n, est\u00e1 buscando de casi doblar las penas para los condenados por este crimen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En un proyecto de ley que ser\u00e1 presentado ante el Congreso, el gobierno colombiano tiene previsto casi que duplicar la pena m\u00e1xima por extorsi\u00f3n<\/a>, de 18 a 32 a\u00f1os. As\u00ed mismo, la pena m\u00ednima para aquellos condenados por extorsi\u00f3n podr\u00eda pasar de 8 a 16 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Algunas estimaciones han ubicado el ingreso anual de la extorsi\u00f3n en m\u00e1s de mil millones<\/a> de d\u00f3lares. Seg\u00fan la unidad especializada de la polic\u00eda de lucha contra el secuestro y la extorsi\u00f3n, el GAULA, las peque\u00f1as empresas pagan entre US$250 y US$2.500 mensuales, dependiendo de sus ingresos. Incluso muchos vendedores ambulantes tienen que pagar cuotas de extorsi\u00f3n de hasta un d\u00f3lar diario para poder trabajar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Si se aprueba la ley, la condena por extorsi\u00f3n quedar\u00eda en el mismo rango que el del asesinato. La condena promedio por asesinato premeditado en Colombia es de alrededor de 25 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An\u00e1lisis de InSight Crime<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

La extorsi\u00f3n sol\u00eda ser del dominio exclusivo de los guerrilleros marxistas, quienes ten\u00edan como blanco a las grandes empresas nacionales y multinacionales. Hoy en d\u00eda, aunque los guerrilleros todav\u00eda est\u00e1n profundamente involucrados en la extorsi\u00f3n, han sido superados por la nueva generaci\u00f3n de grupos narcotraficantes, conocidos como BACRIM (a partir de la descripci\u00f3n del gobierno de estos grupos como \u201cbandas criminales\u201d). El perfil de la v\u00edctima tambi\u00e9n ha cambiado dr\u00e1sticamente. La extorsi\u00f3n a las grandes empresas y multinacionales en realidad se ha reducido, mientras que \u201cla microextorsi\u00f3n\u201d ha experimentado un crecimiento explosivo, siendo ahora la mayor\u00eda de las v\u00edctimas propietarios de tiendas locales y peque\u00f1as empresas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En t\u00e9rminos generales, los guerrilleros imponen la mayor\u00eda de sus demandas de extorsi\u00f3n en las zonas rurales, o los centros urbanos m\u00e1s peque\u00f1os, aunque hay indicios de que la guerrilla est\u00e1 tratando de ampliar sus actividades de extorsi\u00f3n<\/a> a las grandes ciudades. No obstante, en los tres principales centros urbanos de Colombia -Bogot\u00e1, la capital, Medell\u00edn y Cali- la extorsi\u00f3n es en su mayor\u00eda administrada por bandas callejeras locales o las BACRIM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La introducci\u00f3n de esta legislaci\u00f3n es tal vez una reacci\u00f3n instintiva del gobierno, que est\u00e1 luchando contra la percepci\u00f3n general de que la situaci\u00f3n de seguridad est\u00e1 empeorando, a\u00fan cuando est\u00e1 participando en conversaciones de paz con la insurgencia marxista. Lo que est\u00e1 claro es que la delincuencia, en particular en los centros urbanos, es cada vez mayor, y la extorsi\u00f3n es la principal responsable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
