46 that are exhibited, but with a focus on the medical-legal documentation and it is then when the guidelines set by the international standards to document torture must be complied with. To summarize, the fifteen medical certificates were prepared only to 162 certify the physical integrity [of the victims] and not to document torture.” 119. Said expert opinion coincides with what was put forward by the State itself, according to which there exists a difference with “[a]nother type of intervention that the forensic physician carries out in Mexico, […] regarding an expert opinion on physical torture, whose investigation and documentation guidelines are found in Agreement A/057/2003, in force since the month of September 2003 due to the Contextualization of the Istanbul Protocol […] in the country. This medical intervention, in order to be carried out, like all the others carried out by the forensic physician, requires an express and written request on the part of the requesting judicial and/or ministerial authority and the conditions for its application.” 120. Therefore, the Court concludes that, taking into account its purpose, the 14 medical certificates mentioned are not sufficient, by themselves, to stablish a foundation on the rejection or acceptance of the allegations of torture in the instant case. Nevertheless, regarding the possible violation to the right to humane treatment [personal integrity], the Court highlights certain medical certificates, such as the one issued on May 15, 1999, in which it was certified the presence of bruises that were allegedly the result of the blows received by Messrs. Cabrera and Montiel during their detention163 or the certificate issued on June 4, 1999, in which it was sustained that the injuries had been produced approximately 30 days before.164 1.3. Expert opinions specifically aimed to verify the alleged acts of torture 121. The Court notes that on July 29, 2000, when the victims were already at the Social Rehabilitation Center of Iguala, Dr. Christian Tramsen and Dr. Morris Tidball-Binz, on behalf of the “Physicians for Human Rights – Denmark” Organization, carried out a medical assessment specifically aimed at determining whether Messrs. Cabrera and Montiel had been victims of torture. This expert opinion was issued more than one (1) year after the arrest of Messrs. Cabrera and Montiel.165 Thus, they concluded that “[t]he physical results conclusively coincide with the statements regarding the time and the methods of the torture suffered [by 162 Cf. Expert opinion rendered by expert witness Juana Ma. Gutierrez Hernandez at the public hearing conducted in the instant case. 163 Cf. Coddehum, Detailed Affidavit of May 15,1999, supra note 153, folios 4006 to 4007. 164 Cf. Medical certificates of the psychophysical condition and injuries of June 4, 1999, supra note 154, folios 2053 to 2056. 165 The expert opinion was presented within the framework of the proceeding instituted by the victims in which they specifically denounced the alleged acts of torture committed against them. According to what is stated in the report, Dr. Tramsen and Dr. Tidball-Binz carried out the respective medical interview with Messrs. Cabrera and Montiel “in the reception hall of the prison director’s office […]. The physical examination [was allegedly] performed in complete privacy in a neighboring room used as a bathroom and a cellar that was sufficiently lit. [The alleged victims were allegedly] undressed for the physical examination.”.” They also indicated that “[d]uring the interview and the examination, Rodolfo Montiel and Teodoro Cabrera were completely conscious, and oriented in time, space, location, and person, and both had a normal level of short and long-term memory. They adequately answered the questions and responded coherently to important medical events. Nevertheless, in the case of Teodoro Cabrera, his visual impairment allegedly influenced, as was expected, his observations and the reconstruction of the events.”.” During the course of the public hearing, Dr. Tramsen added that this examination was performed in conformity with the methodology established in the Istanbul Protocol and by the International Rehabilitation Center of Tortured Victims.
