The Court deems that the denial of justice to the victims of grave human rights violations, as in the case of a massacre, results in a series of problems, both individually and collectively.245 In this regard, it is evident that the victims of prolonged impunity suffer different infringements in their search for justice, not only materially, but also other suffering and damages of a psychological and physical nature and in their life projects, as well as other potential alterations to their social relations and to the dynamics of their families and communities.246 The Court has indicated that these damages are intensified by the lack of support of the state authorities in an effective search and identification of the remains, and by the impossibility of properly honoring their dear ones.247 In view of this situation, the Court has considered the need to provide different types of reparation so as to fully redress the damages, therefore in addition to pecuniary measures, other measures such as satisfaction, restitution, rehabilitation, and guarantees of non-repetition have special relevance due to the gravity of the infringements and collective nature of the damage caused.248 227. The Court has established that reparations must have a causal connection to the facts of the case, violations declared, proven damages, and to the measures requested for reparation of the corresponding damages. The Court must therefore observe these conditions in order to adjudge and declare adequately and according to law.249 228.
