On June 25 2010, the Constitutional Tribunal (CT) published on its website its judgment on case 06316-2008-PA/TC that declares inadmissible the Constitutional Claim (Amparo) files by the Interethnic Association for for the Peruvian Jungle Development (AIDESEP), which stated that the companies holding the License Agreements for the Exploration and Production of Hydrocarbons y Blocks 67 and 39 of the Loreto Region, violated the rights to live, health, welfare, cultural integrity, ethnic identity, to a balanced environment, property, and ancient possession as well the territorial rights of the Indigenous People in Isolation and requested the suspension of all operations in these territories.
In its judgment, the CT rejects allegations about the supposed threat to the rights of Peoples in Voluntary Isolation and the evidence of their existence stating that, “although the plaintiff has submitted several studies, documents and testimonies, the defendant companies as well as the Ministry of Energy and Mines, have questioned such support, submitting an extensive list of studies and other documents that would prove the lack of presence of Non Contacted Communities or People in Voluntary Isolation in the areas relate to the exploration and exploitation projects referred to in the lawsuit”. The CT concludes that “the Constitutional Claim (Amparo) is not the proper way for this lawsuit without since the review of evidence issues, as controversial as those exposed in this case, have no place in this case as stated in article 9th of the Constitutional Procedure Code”.
