The legal system contains the concepts of confiscation of the proceeds and instrumentalities of crime (art. 100 of the Criminal Code, art. 82 of the Code of Criminal Procedure) and termination of ownership (Act No. 793 of 2002). It is noted that the practice of criminal investigation and prosecution is still not applied systematically to proceeds of crime in cases of corruption.Articles 83 to 85 of the Code of Criminal Procedure regulate freezing and seizure by the Public Prosecutor’s Office through the guarantee judge. The Office of the Comptroller-General has the power of administrative seizure. The Special Fund for the Administration of Assets of the Public Prosecutor’s Office was set up on the basis of article 86 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. Colombia has not legislated on the confiscation of funds transformed or converted in part or in full into other property, the confiscation based on value of property intermingled with property acquired from legitimate sources, or of benefits derived from property. The “dynamic burden of proof” criterion is applied with regard to the termination of ownership, as opposed to the confiscation system. However, the case law on the subject is still being developed. The Constitutional Court recently ruled that with regard to the termination of ownership of the proceeds of illicit enrichment, the Public Prosecutor’s Office is obliged to prove the illicit origin of the property.
