the victims of certain human rights violations, applying a presumption iuris tantum in the case of mothers and fathers, daughters and sons, husbands and wives, and permanent companions, provided this responds to the particular circumstances of the case. In the case of the direct family members, it is for the State to disprove this presumption. 164 In addition, this presumption is also applicable to the victims’ siblings, unless the contrary is established by the specific circumstances of the case.165 137. Consequently, this Court considers that, as a direct result of the arbitrary deprivation of the life of Robert Ignacio Díaz Loreto, David Octavio Díaz Loreto and Octavio Ignacio Díaz Álvarez, the members of their family have suffered pain and anguish to the detriment of their mental and moral integrity. Furthermore, the Court has already referred in the chapter on judicial guarantees to the acts of harassment and threats against the family members of Robert Ignacio Díaz Loreto, David Octavio Díaz Loreto and Octavio Ignacio Díaz Álvarez during the judicial investigations into the facts of this case (supra Chapter VII.2.B.3). 138. Therefore, the Court concludes that the State is responsible for the violation of Article 5(1) of the American Convention, in relation to Article 1(1) of this instrument, to the detriment of the family members of Robert Ignacio Díaz Loreto, David Octavio Díaz Loreto and Octavio Ignacio Díaz Álvarez.166 VIII. REPARATIONS (APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 63(1) OF THE AMERICAN CONVENTION) 139. Based on the provisions of Article 63(1) of the American Convention,167 the Court has indicated that any violation of an international obligation that has caused harm entails the duty to make adequate reparation and that this provision reflects a customary norm that constitutes one of the fundamental principles of contemporary international law on State responsibility.168 The Court has found it necessary to grant diverse measures of reparation in order to redress the harm comprehensively, so that in addition to pecuniary compensation, measures of restitution, rehabilitation and satisfaction, together with guarantees of nonrepetition, have special relevance for the harm caused. 169 Similarly, the reparations must Cf.
