Sexual harassment is a set of physical, verbal or non-verbal behaviors of a sexual nature that has the effect of an affront to the dignity of a person by creating intimidation, hostility, humiliation, offense or a degrading environment. The Colombian penal code requires as conditions to prove a case of sexual harassment: first, to demonstrate that the victim has been harassed, persecuted or besieged; second, the sexual purposes in favor of the victimizer or third parties; third, there is no consent in the victim; fourth, a relationship of imbalance of power in favor of the victimizer and against the victim. The recommendations for the forensic evaluation include: Framing into the socio-cultural context of the evaluated person; Recolection of the story identifying the psychic trace and the emotional, social and physical effects of the sexual harassment and the closing of the interview -closing the psychic wounds that could be opened with the psychological exploration and not revictimize-; Make a succinct and clear expert report informing if there is a vital risk to the authority, the treatment recommendations and if you find fictitious sexual harassment.
RESUMEN: Para realizar una valoración pericial integral forense de la tortura es indispensable considerar los daños e impactos generados por la tortura en los contextos relacionales o vinculares de la víctima; no se puede separar la tortura y sus consecuencias psicológicas de los aspectos psicosociales del individuo. Una propuesta sistematica para evaluar los efectos psicológicos de la tortura en el contexto forense consiste en clasificarlos en cuadros reactivos inmediatos, respuestas psicológicas comunes, cuadros psicopatológicos o trastornos psiquiátricos propiamente dichos, impacto sobre el proyecto de vida, la presencia o no de discapacidad psicosocial y por otro lado, las consecuencias psicosociales dividas en consecuencias sobre los microgrupos y sobre los macrogrupos. Conclusiones: El Protocolo de Estambul, así como en numerosos artículos especializados, destacan la importancia de evaluar el contexto en el que sucede la tortura. La evaluación forense de las consecuencias psicologicas de la tortura solo puede considerarse integral cuando se valora al individuo y sus relaciones vinculares en su contexto.
