Summary: Political crime refers to a set of behaviors menacing the existence of the juridical order in force and the institutions representing the state, and whose authors are motivated by altruist purposes. The benevolent treatment given to these crimes, at the moment of sanctioning or punishing this type of behavior makes contrasts with the lack of clarity on the motifs which inspire them and which allow us to separate them from other forms of crime, such as anarchist or authoritarian crime. In a situation of conflict, such as Colombia's case, the distorted practices of its actors determine a behavior belonging more to this kind of crime, than to real political crimes, having into account the lack of an ideology which would allow us to see noble, altruistic, humanitarian or progressive motifs.
