76(83) The events that took place on July 3, 1993, caused Sydney Shaw Arrivillaga
pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage, which has had an impact on his social and
work-related relations and altered his relationship with his son. Dealing with this
damage has involved expenditure for Sydney Shaw Arrivillaga, such as the medical
expenses for his son following the attack of July 3, 1993.93 The aspect that made the
greatest impression on him was to believe for almost half an hour that his son was
dead, since he saw how he was shot. He suffers because he left his son alone on the
highway, at the site of the attack.94

injuries to his back. The events of the day of the attack have caused him profound
suffering and have left physical and psychological aftereffects.95
