The trials and sentences of the Military Political Prisioners are carried out under a Criminal Procedure System repealed for being an archaic system, typical of the Middle Ages, in which the same judge investigates, accuses, prosecutes and sentences. The new system came into force for all regions of the country in 2005. For all that years, all Chilean citizens have been subjected to a new Legal Procedure System that is denied to the Military Political Prisioners.
