28. Furthermore, the Court clarifies that the duration of the State’s obligation to finance
Myriam Zapata Escués’ post-secondary studies will be extended pursuant to the rules of the
corresponding institution of higher learning and in accordance with the applicable scholastic
criteria for someone in her situation. If the corresponding institution indicates times limits for
obtaining the degree or rules regarding minimum GPA requirements, or any other similar
requirements, the beneficiary must comply, in conditions that respect her cultural diversity,
as explained in the preceding paragraph. The application of these criteria must likewise pay
heed to the special and preferential academic support measures that are necessary for the
successful integration of ethnic minorities into the national education system.
16. In accordance with the foregoing, the Court regards the State to have
fulfilled Operative Paragraph Eleven of the Judgment.
C)
Regarding the provision of specialized medical, psychiatric, and
psychological treatment (Operative Paragraph Twelve of the
Judgment)
17. Regarding this obligation, awarded to Mses. Zapata Escué, Myriam Zapata
Escué, Bertha Escué Coicue, and Francya Doli Escué Zapata, as well as Messrs.
Mario Pasu, Aldemar Escué Zapata, Yonson Escué Zapata, Ayénder Escué Zapata,
Omar Zapata, and Albeiro Pasu, the Court received information from the State, the
representatives, and the Inter-American Commission during the private hearing on
monitoring compliance with Judgment held as part of the present case (supra
Having Seen 4). In this regard, the Court reiterates that this reparation measure
will be examined by monitoring compliance altogether in eight Colombian cases. As
a result, the court will pass appropriate judgment on all the information received,
including the information put forward during the hearing held in relation to the
case.
D)
Regarding the Publication of the Judgment in the Official
Gazette (Operative Paragraph Thirteen)
18. The State reported that “the publication of the paragraphs of the Judgment
in the Official Gazette was carried out on May 10, 2010,” and consequently
requested that the Court declare its full compliance with this measure.
19. The representatives observed that “the publication was carried out in
accordance with the Court’s requirements; however, the time it took to fulfill this
obligation was excessive, given that it was completed almost three years after
they were ordered.”
20.
The Commission considered that this measure had been fulfilled.
21. In its Order of May 18, 2010, the Court declared the partial fulfillment of
this measure, regarding the publication of the Judgment in a nationally circulated
Spanish-language newspaper and a regional nasa yuwe-language newspaper, as
well as a summary, which had the restorative and symbolic effect of the measure
in the heart of the Community. Also, considering the State has now carried out
the publication of the relevant parts of the Judgment in the Official Gazette on
May 10, 2010, and the parties involved gave their approval, the Court deems that
Colombia has fully complied with Operative Paragraph Thirteen of the Judgment.
THEREFORE:
THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS,
