351. The representatives requested that the Court order the State to hold a public act of
acknowledgment of international responsibility for the facts of the present case through the
head of State. In this regard, the State indicated that “[i]n consultation with the next of kin
of the victim, it would hold an act of acknowledgment of […] responsibility with regard to
the violations determined [by the Court].” Likewise, it indicated that it would offer an
apology to the next of kin of the victim.
352. The Court values positively the offering made by the State regarding this form of
reparation, given the importance and positive effects this modality of reparations has for the
victims of violations of human rights. On previous occasions, the Court has valued favorably
those acts that seek to recover the memory of the victims, the acknowledgment of their
dignity, and the consolation of their relatives.325

Likewise, it shall be carried out through a public ceremony in the presence of high national
authorities and the next of kin of Mr. Radilla-Pacheco. The State and the next of kin of Mr.
Radilla-Pacheco and/or their representatives, shall agree on the modality of compliance with
the public act of acknowledgment, as well as the specific aspects required, such as the place
and date on which it will be held.
