9 Alvarado, the Commission will analyze the State’s possible responsibility due to noncompliance with the obligations established in Article 7 of the Convention of Belém do Pará. 45. Furthermore, the IACHR considers that the allegations related to the lack of legal elucidation of the facts denounced, the infringements caused to the relatives of the presumed victims as a result of their alleged disappearance, taking into account the facts of threats and harassment against them that motivated the adoption of international protection measures in their favor could characterize violations to the rights protected by Articles 11 5, 8 and 25 of the American Convention to its detriment. 46. Concerning Jaime Alvarado Herrera, his wife Sandra Luz Rueda Quezada, and their children J.O.A.R., R.G.A.R., S.A.R., and J.E.A.R, the Commission will also examine the presumed violation of Article 11 of the American Convention in connection with the alleged entry and search of their home presumably carried out by members of the federal police on August 28, 2011. With regard to A.A.R and R.A.A.R, minor children of Rocio Irene Alvarado, the Commission will also examine the facts related to the alleged detention of the latter in the presence of her siblings, and the alleged abuses against them, in light of Article 19 of the American Convention, interpreted in accordance with the corpus juris on the rights of children and adolescents. 47. Finally, the Commission considers that the allegations on the ineffectiveness of the amparo appeal as a means of protection in light of a forced disappearance require a substantive analysis since they raise 12 matters related to the scope of the obligation contained in Article 2 of the American Convention. 48. With regard to whether the claim is out of order or inadmissible, the IACHR concludes that the petitioners have demonstrated prima facie the points required under Article 47.b of the American Convention. V. CONCLUSIONS 49. Based on the arguments of fact and law set forth herein, and without prejudging the merits of the case, the Inter-American Commission concludes that this petition fulfills the admissibility requirements set out in Articles 46 and 47 of the American Convention and accordingly: THE INTER-AMERICAN COMMISSION ON HUMAN RIGHTS DECIDES: 1.
