Misdemeanor Code of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.163 Likewise, in accordance with article 152 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, the police are only to detain a person without a warrant in cases of flagrante delicto, and must immediately bring the case before the competent prosecutor, who must either ratify the detention or release the person.164 Taking into account Argentina’s federal system and respecting the prerogatives of the provincial legislatures, this Court finds that the measures taken by the State are sufficient to comply with the guarantees of non-repetition in regard to the specific case analyzed by this judgment. 129. Additionally, the representatives asked the Court for: “a. Installation of video cameras in all police stations of the City of Buenos Aires that cannot be manipulated by police personnel” and locate them “all along the route a detainee takes: from entry to the area where they are to be held.” This footage "must be kept for a period of no less than five (5) years" and "b. Document and record all conversations over the radio and/or communication systems between police officers, patrol car teams, dispatchers, and the police stations, as well as the conversations over the phone lines of the police stations and dispatch.” 130. The State clarified that, in the framework of case No. 12,854 Ricardo Javier Kaplun and Family, being processed before the Commission, the State had committed to “updating the detention spaces provided in the police stations for temporarily holding detainees waiting to be transferred to the judiciary or awaiting their final release to ensure they comply with applicable international standards by installing closed-circuit video surveillance systems in the internal guard area and the cell access area.” The Commission indicated in its 2019 Annual Report that this commitment had been fulfilled. 131. The Court determined that the reasons for which José Delfín Acosta Martínez died were never established by the domestic courts in Argentina. It therefore deems important to install video cameras in the areas where the detainees are held in the police stations of the City of Buenos Aires, a measure that has already been complied with. With respect to the other requests of the representatives, the Court finds that the measures granted and the ones the State has already complied with are sufficient to guarantee the aim of nonrepetition of the violations. F. Compensation F.1. Pecuniary damage 132. In its case law, this Court has developed the concept that pecuniary damage includes the loss of, or detriment to, the income of the victims, the expenses incurred as a result of the facts, and the consequences of a pecuniary nature that have a causal nexus with the facts of the case165—that is, it includes indirect damages and loss of future earnings. 133. The Commission asked the Court to order comprehensive pecuniary damages to the victims. 163 Law No. 1,472 of September 23, 2004. Cf.
