6 Groups and Organs of Society to Promote and Protect Universally Recognized Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. f) The Inter-American Court should conclude that the State has not complied with the provisional measures requested by the Court, which, in light of the Convention, constitutes a grave situation, without precedent in the inter-American system for the protection of human rights, because it endangers the lives and safety of human rights defenders; g) “[O]ne of the officials the State […] had assigned [to protect Liliana Ortega] is being prosecuted as a hired assassin in the alleged murder of an opposition leader; and h) “[W]hen planning these measures of protection, the following should also be taken in account: [providing] COFAVIC personnel with bullet-proof vests for their personal protection[;] […] the assignment of [...] motorcycles […] to ensure rapid transport during the difficult moment that some members of the COFAVIC team have experienced; […] the installation of a special metal detector in the entry to COFAVIC and of a double security door at the COFAVIC offices with the characteristics and requirements determined by the COFAVIC Board of Directors; [the appointment of a national prosecutor from the Office of the Attorney General, in consultation with the petitioners, and the State [should be] requested to make a statement [...] in favor of respect and protection for the work of human rights defenders in Venezuela […].” 17.
