3 Finally, the Commission requested the Court to order certain measures of reparations. 4. On October 31, 2007, Mr. Waldo Albarracín Sánchez, Ombudsman of Bolivia, acting as representative of the alleged victims’ next-of-kin (hereinafter, the “representative”)3 filed a brief containing pleadings, motions and evidence (hereinafter, “brief containing pleadings and motions”) under the terms of Article 23 of the Rules of Procedure. Regarding the statement of facts, the representative ascribed to the facts mentioned in the Commission’s application, though he emphasized and completed some aspects contained in it. Likewise, the representative agreed with the legal arguments expressed in the application and the resulting violations stated therein. Moreover, it concluded that the State has made no effort to locate the remains of Renato Ticona and that it has not conducted a serious and effective investigation in relation to the criminal procedure conducted in order to shed light on the forced disappearance of Renato Ticona. Based on the foregoing, the representative requested the Court to order the State the adoption of certain measures of reparations. 5. On January 29, 2008, the State filed a brief containing the response to the petition and observations to the brief of pleadings and motions (hereinafter, “response to the petition”) in which it stated that it fully agreed with the statement of facts expressed by the Commission and the representative. Nevertheless, it further alleged that “it wished to emphasize some of the aspects and add some information to the facts put forward by the Commission” and by the representative. As to the facts, the State acknowledged its international responsibility for the rights contained in Articles 1(1) (Obligation to Respect Rights), 3 (Right to Juridical Personality), 4 (Right to Life), 5 (Right to Humane Treatment), 7 (Right to Personal Liberty), 8 (Right to a Fair Trial) and 25 (Right to Judicial Protection) of the American Convention and Articles I, III and XI of the IACFDP, to the detriment of Renato Ticona and Articles 5 (Right to Humane Treatment), 8 (Right to a Fair Trial) and 25 (Right to Judicial Protection) of the Convention, in relation to Article 1(1) (Obligation to Respect Rights) of the same treaty, to the detriment of Honoria Estrada de Ticona, César Ticona Olivares, Hugo, Betzy and Rodo Ticona Estrada, all of them mentioned by the Inter-American Commission, with which the Ombudsman agreed. Nevertheless, the State expressed that it did not acquiesce to “the reparations requested by the legal representative of the family” and informed the Court its intention to reach a friendly settlement with the alleged victims in order to solve the case at hand. On November 7, 2007, the State appointed Mr. Martin Callisaya Coaquira, Bolivia Ambassador to Costa Rica, to be the Agent and Mr. Victor Ángelo Montecinos Willca, Prime Secretary, as Deputy Agent. 6. On March 25 and 26, 2008, respectively, the representative and the Commission filed the observations to the acknowledgement of international responsibility made by the State. II 3 The brief of pleadings and motions was also signed by Mr. Guido Ibarguen B., human rights advisor. Nevertheless, on October 29, 2007, Mr. Ibarguen informed that, in the case brought before the Court’s attention, he would no longer represent the next-of-kin of Ticona Estrada as from November 1, 2007.
