What would change the assessment
- If the Foro Penal reports a significant change in the number of political prisoners (e.g., release of more than 50) within 90 days, the article's emphasis on ongoing detention would be outdated. (within 90 days — Foro Penal reports)
- If the Ombudsman's office publicly announces a formal investigation into prison conditions and access to lawyers within 90 days, the article's claim of inaction would be contradicted. (within 90 days — Defensoría del Pueblo official statements)
