The alternative measures imply that, although the personnel have been released from prison, they remain subject to the conditions and monitoring dictated by the Military Justice System according to each case.
With this step, the National Assembly and the military institutions reaffirm their commitment to boosting mechanisms that promote reconciliation among the various sectors of the nation.
