Developments: 2. Parole commissions across various Chilean jurisdictions have been conducting sessions to evaluate requests for conditional liberty. In Antofagasta, the commission, led by acting President Virginia Soublette, began reviewing 360 requests from inmates in Antofagasta, Tocopilla, Calama, and Taltal. To qualify, inmates must meet minimum sentence requirements, demonstrate irreproachable conduct, and receive psychosocial reports from Gendarmería de Chile. Recent legal changes require Gendarmería to notify victims of these applications, allowing them to submit written allegations. In other regions, recent sessions have resulted in high rejection rates. In Rancagua, the commission approved only 28 out of 354 applications (7.9%), while in Concepción, 50 out of 383 applications (approximately 13.6%) were granted. ## Claims - The Rancagua Parole Commission approved 28 out of 354 requests.
