In this respect, first, the Tribunal observes that in this case, the purpose of the proceedings on provisional measures is different from the purpose of the contentious case in its procedural aspects, in the evaluation of evidence, and in the scope of the decisions issued. 33 Additionally, the Court highlights that even though the alleged victims in this case are also beneficiaries of provisional measures, there are more beneficiaries than there are alleged victims.
