In light of the abovementioned, and taking into account the conformity expressed by the representatives at least in regard to the amendments made to the relevant criminal laws, the Court declares that the State has complied with operative paragraph eleven of the Judgment. THEREFORE: THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS, in exercise of its authority to monitor compliance with its decisions and in accordance with Articles 33, 62(1), 62(3), 65, 67 and 68(1) of the American Convention on Human Rights, 25(1) and 30 of its Statute, and 31 and 69 of its Rules of Procedure,9 DECLARES THAT: 1. In accordance with Considering Paragraphs 11, 19, 23 and 35 of the instant Order, the State has fully complied with the following obligations: a) to pay the amounts set in the Judgment as compensation for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage, and reimbursement of legal costs and expenses (sixth operative paragraph of the Judgment); b) to remove immediately the name of Mr. Kimel off all public records wherein he has been entered as having a criminal record in relation to the present case (eighth operative paragraph of the Judgment); c) to carry out the publications indicated in paragraph 125 of the Judgment (ninth operative paragraph of the Judgment), and d) to bring its domestic legislation into conformity with the provisions of the InterAmerican Convention on Human Rights, so that the lack of accuracy acknowledged by the State be amended, in order to comply with the requirements of legal certainty so that, consequently, they do not affect the exercise of the right to freedom of thought and expression (eleventh operative paragraph). 2. The monitoring proceedings will remain open until full compliance with the measures pending, in accordance with Considering Paragraphs 15 and 29 of the instant Order, is achieved, namely to: 8 a) set aside the criminal sentence imposed on Mr. Kimel and all the effects deriving therefrom (seventh operative paragraph of the Judgment), and b) hold a public act of acknowledgement of its responsibility (tenth operative paragraph of the Judgment).
