In light of the above, since the alleged victim was sentenced as the result of a civil trial, during which it has not been considered that Article 8 of the American Convention was violated, the Court considers that it is not in order for it to require Lori Berenson’s liberation. XI ARTICLES 7 AND 11 OF THE AMERICAN CONVENTION (RIGHT TO PERSONAL LIBERTY AND RIGHT TO PRIVACY) 211.
