Arbitrariness leads to impunity, they are two different concepts and do not carry the same meaning.

Explicação:
The intended sense of "arbítrio" here seems to be people engaging in illegal activity at will and without consequence. "Fight against", "combatting", etc. could be substituted for "struggle against."

I would add here that "arbitrariness" is a mistranslation of "arbítrio," which is intended here (in my view) to refer (as I stated in my original post) to individuals "acting at will and without consequence." "Arbitrariness", on the other hand, is relevant to the practice of justice *in reference to such individuals*--which is covered in the posted text by "injustiça."

  -> Thank you, T o b i a s.

concordo  Evans (X): Yes, the same translation occurred to me. I've seen 'impunity" used in a lot of reports about human rights issues, and it carries much the same meaning as the use of arbítrio in Portuguese reports.

  -> My answer was more intuitive than anything else, so nice to have some solid support! Thank you, Gilla.

neutro  Marlene Curtis: Arbitrariness leads to impunity, they are not synonyms./impunity = impunidade. See Teresa's references.

  -> But no one speaks or writes in English of "fighting arbitrariness." Moreover, your reference is not relevant to the context of the posted query.
