5 14. That with due to the information and observations presented by the parties regarding the actual state of the situation of extreme gravity and urgency, the Tribunal observes that the State implemented transitory measures of protection in favor of Adrián Meléndez Quijano and his next of kin recently in the month of December 2009. Also, the Court finds that actual elements of risk exist that make it necessary to maintain the provisional measures in favor of Adrián Meléndez Quijano, Marina Elizabeth García de Meléndez, Andrea Elizabeth Meléndez García, Estefani Mercedes Meléndez García, Pamela Michelle Meléndez García, Adriana María Meléndez García, Gloria Tránsito Quijano widow of Meléndez, Sandra Ivette Meléndez Quijano, Roxana Jacqueline Mejía Torres, Manuel Alejandro Meléndez Mejía, Benjamín Cuéllar Martínez and Henry Paúl Fino Solórzano. 15. The Court observes that from the manifestations made by the parties, it is seen that concrete agreements exist that were made between them (supra Considering 7) for the proper implementation of the provisional measures ordered by the Tribunal, for which the Court considers fair and good to give a rigorous following to the execution of such promises adopted by the State and accepted by the representatives. In this respect, this Tribunal considers it pertinent that the State informs in a periodic, specific, and detailed manner regarding the implementation of these agreements to the Court. 16. That this Tribunal warns that the duty to implement the sufficient and necessary measures for the proper protection of the beneficiaries corresponds to the State in all its scope. These must be applied in an immediate manner as long as they continue to be valid, for which the same must not cease or be suspended for any reason, and the diverse, prevailing circumstances must be taken into account for their effective implementation, which implies offering participation to the beneficiaries or their representatives in the planning of the same. * * * 17. That through the brief of September 29, 2009, the representatives reiterated that the beneficiary José Roberto Burgos Viale voluntarily relinquished the measures of security implemented by the State beginning during the month of August 2007. At the public hearing, the representatives reiterated this. On the other hand, in the brief of November 30, 2009, as well as in the public hearing, the representatives informed that the beneficiary Lic. Eurípides Manuel Meléndez Quijano, the brother of Mr. Adrián Meléndez Quijano, died due to natural causes on October 14, 2009. 18. That in this respect, the State provided that notwithstanding that Mr. Roberto Burgos Viale relinquished the measures in his favor, the State would be open to offering such service in favor of Mr. Burgos in case that it were requested again by the representatives. The State reiterated its sympathy for the death of Mr. Eurípides Manuel Meléndez Quijano. 19. That based on the aforementioned arguments, the Court considers it opportune to lift the provisional measures adopted in favor of Mr. José Roberto Burgos Viale and Mr. Eurípides Manuel Meléndez Quijano.
