-33. The arguments of the Commission to justify its request for provisional measures, wherein it stated that: a. b. c. d. the facts against Ms. Guerrero-Gallucci foreshadow acts against her life and personal integrity, due to her denouncement activities (supra Having Seen clauses No. 2(b) and (c)); even though the State has adopted measures of protection in favor of the beneficiaries, according to the information furnished by the petitioners, the protection provided is not sufficiently adequate to effectively protect beneficiaries’ lives.
