Abstract
The following article analyses the legal figure of presumption of guilt, introduced in the Colombian legal system by Law 1333 of 2009. Also, it exposes the main critical postures to the said law, as it is considered to violate the right to the presumption of innocence. It does so by reviewing the study of constitutionality carried out by the Colombian Constitutional Court, and by issuing a call to remember the essential elements of the administrative act.
