nor did the judicial authorities clarify the appropriate avenues for raising such issues. Relying on effective remedies to challenge the competence, independence and impartiality of the judicial authorities dealing with his case was of special relevance, taking into account that Mr. Romero Feris complained that judicial authorities hearing his case had been appointed in violation of the proceedings established by the Constitution and the law, with the purpose of deciding the cases against him in a specific political context. 140. Accordingly, the IACHR concludes that the State of Argentina violated to the detriment of Mr. Romero Feris: (i) the right to judicial protection established in Article 25.1 of the Convention in relation to the right to be tried by a competent authority established in Article 8.1 of the same, regarding the recusation of the composition of Criminal Chamber No. 2 and the Superior Court of Justice; (ii) the right to judicial protection established in Article 25.1 of the Convention in relation to the right to be tried by an impartial tribunal established in Article 8.1 of the same instrument, as regards the recusation of a magistrate in Criminal Chamber No.2 for having a family member involved in connected cases ; (iii) the right to judicial protection established in Article 25.1 of the Convention in relation to the right to be tried by an impartial tribunal established in Article 8.1 of the same instrument, as regards the recusation of members of Criminal Chamber No.2 involved in the review of procedural steps during the instruction phase of the proceedings; and (iv) the right to be tried by a competent tribunal in accordance with lawfully established procedures and the right to judicial protection enshrined in Articles 8.1 and 25.1 of the Convention, as regards the challenge against the Superior Court of Justice, for adopting a decision with only three of its five members in violation of the Organic Law of the Administration of Justice. VI. CONCLUSIONS 141. Based on the foregoing considerations of fact and law, the Inter-American Commission concludes that the Argentine State is responsible for violating the rights to personal liberty, judicial guarantees and judicial protection established in Articles 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.5, 7.6, 8.1, 8.2 and 25.1 of the American Convention, in relation to the obligations established in Article 1.1 of the same instrument, to the detriment of Raúl Rolando Romero Feris VII. RECOMMENDATIONS 142. Based on the above findings THE INTER-AMERICAN COMMISSION ON HUMAN RIGHTS RECOMMENDS THAT THE STATE OF ARGENTINA 1. Fully repair the human rights violations declared in this report against Mr. Raúl Rolando Romero Feris, both materially and immaterially, including fair compensation 2. Take the necessary measures to ensure the non-repetition of the violations declared in the present report. In particular, the State must adopt administrative or other measures to ensure strict compliance with the maximum legal term for preventive detention, as well as providing adequate grounds for ordering it, in the light of the standards developed in this report 3. In addition, the State must ensure the availability of adequate and effective mechanisms to enable persons subjected to criminal proceedings to challenge, in a simple and rapid manner, the competence, independence and impartiality of the judicial authorities. 33
