Based on the foregoing conclusions, the circumstances of this case, and the violations found, the Court considers it pertinent to establish, in equity, compensation for pecuniary and nonpecuniary damage in favor of Wong Ho Wing of US$ 30,000.00 (thirty thousand United States dollars). This amount must be paid within the relevant time frame established by the Court (infra para. 323). D. Costs and expenses 318.

With his final written arguments, the representative also forwarded vouchers for expenses incurred following the presentation of the motions and arguments brief. The State indicated that it was only in order to pay costs and expenses if receipts, travel vouchers, and other documents existed proving that the disbursements were made in relation to these proceedings.

The Court reiterates that, pursuant to its case law,387 costs and expenses are part of the concept of reparation, insofar as the actions taken by the victims to obtain justice at both the domestic and the international level, involve expenditures that must be compensated when the international responsibility of the State has been declared in a sentence condemning it. The Court also recalls that the eventual reimbursement of costs and expenses is made based on the disbursements that have been duly proved before the Court. 320.
