On December 11, 2015 the IACHR lifted Precautionary Measures 50/11, granted on March 7, 2011, in favor of Jimena Castillo and other women. The request for precautionary measure alleged that on February 13, 2011, Jimena Castillo Canales and Lorena Ruiz were traveling in a vehicle when two masked individuals reportedly shot at them 15 times. Jimena Castillo was wounded in the arm, and eight bullets hit the vehicle. Consequently, the Inter-American Commission requested that precautionary measures be adopted to guarantee the beneficiaries' life and physical integrity; among other measures.
