50 vi) providing free services in a health care center, without restrictions, covering all expenses, medicines and medical tests included, as well as psychological assistance for Mrs. Victoria Margarita Palomino-Buitrón and the girl Ana María Gómez-Guevara; and vii) taking the action necessary to amend Article 320 of the Criminal Code, so as to render it consistent with the American Convention and with the Inter-American Convention on Forced Disappearance. As regards costs and expenses i) Asociación Pro Derechos Humanos (APRODEH) (Pro Human Rights Association) incurred expenses in connection with legal representation both in domestic and international proceedings, communications ─including telephone, facsimile and Internet─ and mail, the estimate of which will be made by the Court, on equitable grounds and at its own discretion. Arguments of the State 118. As regards the reparations, the State alleged that the acknowledgement of international responsibility made did not in any way release perpetrators and accomplices in the violation of the rights of Mr. Santiago Gómez-Palomino from any of the criminal or civil liabilities that could be attributed them. In this sense, the State committed itself to actively urge a thorough, unbiased, effective and swift investigation in order to identify those persons who may be responsible for the disappearance and execution of Mr. Santiago Gómez-Palomino, to determine the level of their respective participation and to punish them pursuant to criminal law.
