Justice by own hand
Justice by one's own hand is usually evidenced when people lynch or assault another accused of committing an alleged crime, skipping the work of the authorities, it continues to be a recurring problem throughout Colombia.

The defense of those who commit these acts is that, tired of the insecurity that occurs in the cities and the "inaction" of the pertinent authorities in many of these cases, they prefer to teach the alleged criminals a lesson, so that they do not dare to re-offend.

But as a Social State of Law, when a person is captured in Colombia, they must be brought to justice because every citizen has rights and no one can abuse or run over or condemn someone without going before a court as it should be in a democratic country. .
