In this regard, the Court considers that the right to life and the right to personal integrity “imply not only that the State must respect them (negative obligation), but also that the State must adopt all appropriate measures to guarantee them (positive obligation) in accordance with its general obligation established in Article 1(1) of the American Convention.”6 14. That the positive coordination of the State and the representatives in the implementation of the measures of protection in this case constitutes important progress in the development of the process and in the exercise of the principles that inspire the American Convention (supra Having seen paragraph 11(a) and (e)). 15. That the background information provided by the parties (supra ninth considering paragraph) concerning the acts that the members of FAFG have experienced, reveals prima facie a situation of extreme gravity and urgency regarding the right to life and personal integrity of its members, as well as of its Director’s next of kin. 16.
