Los homicidios en Colombia han ca\u00eddo m\u00e1s de un nueve por ciento en el \u00faltimo a\u00f1o, siguiendo una tendencia nacional a largo plazo, aunque las variaciones en las tasas de homicidios en algunas regiones resaltan el continuo impacto violento de las guerras territoriales del crimen organizado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Datos de la polic\u00eda para los 11 meses de 2013 muestran una disminuci\u00f3n del 9,1 por ciento en la tasa nacional de homicidios, en comparaci\u00f3n con 2012, inform\u00f3 El Tiempo<\/a>. La polic\u00eda registr\u00f3 13.153 homicidios a noviembre 29 -1.279 menos que el a\u00f1o anterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n La ciudad de Cali y su \u00e1rea metropolitana se caracterizaron por tener la tasa de homicidios m\u00e1s alta del pa\u00eds, al registrar cerca de 2.000 homicidios en lo que va de 2013. Los homicidios tambi\u00e9n aumentaron en las ciudades de Buenaventura, Bucaramanga, Pereira y Neiva, y en siete departamentos (provincia).<\/p>\n\n\n\n En contraste, se observa una disminuci\u00f3n del 26 por ciento en la tasa de homicidios de Medell\u00edn, cayendo de 1.137 en 2012 a 842 este a\u00f1o, mientras que los asesinatos en el \u00e1rea metropolitana cayeron de 1.572 a 1.202. Otra ca\u00edda notable se dio en la ciudad de C\u00facuta, cerca de la frontera con Venezuela, donde hubo 312 asesinatos -108 menos que el a\u00f1o anterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bogot\u00e1, por el contrario, se mantuvo relativamente estable, registrando 1.119 asesinatos -14 menos que en 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Las estad\u00edsticas confirman una serie de tendencias en Colombia, donde el total de homicidios ha ido disminuyendo desde hace m\u00e1s de una d\u00e9cada<\/a>, aunque hay \u00e1reas espec\u00edficas propensas a experimentar dram\u00e1ticas fluctuaciones relacionadas con las actividades del crimen organizado<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n VEA TAMBI\u00c9N:<\/strong> Noticias y perfiles de Colombia<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n En Medell\u00edn, la gran ca\u00edda en los asesinatos<\/a> ha coincidido con un pacto acordado entre las organizaciones criminales <\/a>que anteriormente se encontraban en disputa, la Oficina de Envigado y los Urabe\u00f1os, haciendo que las afirmaciones de las autoridades locales, de que esto est\u00e1 relacionado con las acciones de la polic\u00eda, sean ingenuas en el mejor de los casos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n En contraste, Cali ha entrado en un per\u00edodo de \u201ccaos criminal<\/a>\u201d a medida que las pandillas callejeras pelean sangrientas batallas territoriales, muchas en nombre de la avanzada de los Urabe\u00f1os o de los remanentes de los Rastrojos, quienes est\u00e1n poniendo una fuerte resistencia a aferrarse a un territorio que fue su n\u00facleo, antes de la implosi\u00f3n del grupo<\/a> como una organizaci\u00f3n criminal nacional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El intento de los Urabe\u00f1os, de apoderarse del que hab\u00eda sido el territorio de los Rastrojos en el suroeste, puede ser otra de las causas de la violencia en Buenaventura, en donde se vieron envueltos en una feroz guerra<\/a> con una pandilla local que hab\u00eda operado previamente como parte de la franquicia de los Rastrojos -la Empresa. Todo apunta a que los Urabe\u00f1os ya han expulsado a La Empresa y controlan el puerto, lo que puede provocar ahora una disminuci\u00f3n de la violencia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Esto es probablemente lo que ha sucedido con la reducci\u00f3n de la violencia en C\u00facuta, donde si bien la polic\u00eda dice que los Rastrojos mantienen una presencia en la regi\u00f3n, que una vez dominaron, los Urabe\u00f1os parecen haber ganado la batalla por la ciudad<\/a>. Sin embargo, el grupo ahora parece estar en medio de una disputa interna compleja y violenta<\/a>, que puede revertir la tendencia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Los homicidios en Colombia han ca\u00eddo m\u00e1s de un nueve por ciento en el \u00faltimo a\u00f1o, siguiendo una tendencia nacional a largo plazo, aunque\u00a0 las variaciones en las tasas de homicidios en algunas regiones resaltan el continuo impacto violento de las guerras territoriales del crimen organizado.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":39162,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_newspack_byline_active":false,"_newspack_byline":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[334],"tags":[368,452],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"coauthors":[3861],"class_list":["post-6189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-del-dia","tag-colombia-pais","tag-homicidios","entry"],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/la-variacion-de-homicidios-en-colombia-refleja-cambios-en-el-mundo-criminal\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"La fluctuaci\u00f3n de los homicidios en Colombia refleja cambios en el mundo criminal","url":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/la-variacion-de-homicidios-en-colombia-refleja-cambios-en-el-mundo-criminal\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/la-variacion-de-homicidios-en-colombia-refleja-cambios-en-el-mundo-criminal\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/es-83a3afdad873109d8657b2dd4d6561d3.jpg?resize=150%2C150&quality=100&ssl=1","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/es-83a3afdad873109d8657b2dd4d6561d3.jpg?fit=280%2C185&quality=100&ssl=1"},"articleSection":"Noticias del d\u00eda","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Natalie Southwick"}],"creator":["Natalie Southwick"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"InSight Crime","logo":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/logo.png"},"keywords":["colombia","homicidios"],"dateCreated":"2017-03-27T23:57:36Z","datePublished":"2017-03-27T23:57:36Z","dateModified":"2023-04-24T20:35:06Z"},"rendered":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/insightcrime.org\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":177032,"url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/balance-insight-crime-homicidios-2021\/","url_meta":{"origin":6189,"position":0},"title":"Balance de InSight Crime de los homicidios en 2021","author":"InSight Crime","date":"1 de febrero de 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"En 2021, la mayor parte de los pa\u00edses de Am\u00e9rica Latina experimentaron un acentuado aumento en los asesinatos.
