La aplicación del principio de no revictimización y su incidencia en la actuación fiscal dentro de los procesos por delitos sexuales en la ciudad de Loja, periodo 2020 2025

Abstract

Abstract: The objective of this research is to analyze the impact of the principle of non-revictimization on prosecutorial conduct in sexual offense cases processed in the city of Loja. A qualitative methodology was employed, involving the design of an interview guide for participants comprising three lawyers, a judge, a social worker, a police officer, and a psychologist. The results indicate that difficulties persist in the practical implementation of the principle, as victims may be required to testify and provide accounts repeatedly potentially causing secondary emotional harm and because victims of sexual abuse generally fail to obtain comprehensive reparation. It is concluded that the impact of the non-revictimization principle on prosecutorial conduct in sexual offense cases in Loja manifests as a formal normative mandate that has yet to fully transform criminal investigative practice, even though legal practitioners acknowledge the importance of minimizing trauma for victims.
