2 In accordance with Article 35 of the Rules of Procedure of the Inter-American Court, the Commission is enclosing a copy of Merits Report No. 102/13, prepared in compliance with Article 50 of the American Convention, as well as a copy of the entire file before the Inter-American Commission (Appendix I.) and the attachments used to prepare the Report on the Merits (Attachment). The Commission transmitted the Merits Report to the State on December 18, 2013 granting it two months to provide information on the measures adopted in compliance with the recommendations. On January 17, 2014, the State claimed that “it has been taking several public policy steps with regard to providing protection, prevention and support to the individual linked to the case.” It also noted that the “proportional extension” it requested will enable it “to move forward with the agenda of a possible agreement between the parties (…) inasmuch as national and local agencies of several branches of government are involved.” On February 18, 2014, the Commission granted a first extension for one month, requesting the State that no later than March 11, 2014, present information on compliance with the recommendations, specially the one related to the immediate specialized medical treatment that TGGL requires. On February 25, 2014, the State requested a work meeting on the case. By means of communication of March 5, 2014, the Commission informed the State that the possible extension would depend on a request for an extension on the part of the State. It was also mentioned the need that the State presents the information required in an urgent basis regarding the medical specialized treatment. Finally the Commission mentioned that an eventual meeting will depend on the will of the victims. Ante la falta de respuesta a la solicitud concreta de información efectuada por la Comisión sobre el cumplimiento de las recomendaciones, especialmente de aquellas a las cuales se otorgó un carácter inmediato ante la situación de salud de TGGL y su múltiple condición de vulnerabilidad, la Comisión decidió someter el presente caso a la jurisdicción de la Corte Interamericana por la necesidad de obtención de justicia para la víctima y su familia. La Comisión Interamericana somete a la jurisdicción de la Corte la totalidad de los hechos y violaciones de derechos humanos descritos en el informe de fondo 102/13. The Inter-American Commission concluded that the State of Ecuador is responsible for the violation of the rights to a dignified life, human treatment, judicial guarantees and due process, established in Articles 4, 5, 8 and 25 of the American Convention in relation to the obligations set out in Article 1.1 of the same instrument, to the prejudice of TGGL. Throughout, the Commission has concluded that the State of Ecuador has failed to fulfill its obligations of special protection of TGGL in her status as a child, in violation of Article 19 of the American Convention. Thus, the Commission concluded that the State of Ecuador is responsible for the violation of the rights to mental and moral integrity, judicial protection and due process, enshrined in Articles 8 and 25 of the American Convention in relation to the obligations established in Article 1.1 of the same instrument to the prejudice of TGGL’s mother and brother. En ese sentido, la Comisión solicita a la Corte que concluya y declare que el Estado de Ecuador es responsable por la violación de los derechos a la vida digna, integridad personal, garantías judiciales y protección judicial, establecidos en los artículos 4, 5, 8 y 25 de la Convención Americana en relación con las obligaciones establecidas en los artículos 1.1 del mismo instrumento, en perjuicio de TGGL. Asimismo, la Comisión solicita a la Corte que concluya y declare que el Estado ecuatoriano incumplió sus obligaciones de especial protección de TGGL en su condición de niña, en violación del artículo 19 de la Convención Americana. Finalmente, la Comisión solicita a la Corte que concluya y declare que el Estado ecuatoriano es
