which it complies with the public act of acknowledgement, as well as the required
characteristics, such as the place and date. The State has one year from notification of this
judgment to comply with this measure.

335. The representatives argued that “the facts of the case had a direct impact on the
education of some members of the family; the mere fact that they were forced to move
from their community interrupted their educational continuity.” They added that several of
the next of kin had expressed their interest in being able to return to their studies and even
undertake university studies, but, owing to the instability of their situation, they have been
unable to fulfill this wish. In the case of Darelbis, Sarais, Víctor Daniel, Beatriz Adriana,
Luisa del Carmen and Jorge Antonio Barrios, they could have completed their high school
certificate and be enrolled in the university, but this project has been obstructed by the
facts. The representatives concluded that “[t]he statements of the next of kin provided to
the Court refer to this point in greater detail.”
336. The Court has established in this judgment that several members of the Barrios
family had to move as a result of the facts; have undergone the disintegration of the family,
and the facts have had aftereffects at the personal, physical and emotional levels. The
representatives indicated that the facts had an impact on the education of some members
of the family and referred to the expression of interest “of the next of kin” to return to their
studies. However, they did not specify who they were referring to, but merely forwarded a
“list with the level of schooling of the Barrios family,” which included the deceased victims in
this case. Notwithstanding the lack of specific information provided by the representatives,
the Court infers that the circumstances and adverse effects in the instant case may have
had an impact on the education of the children of the deceased victims, as well as on the
children who were victims of displacement. Based on the foregoing, the Court finds it
appropriate to order, as a measure of satisfaction in this case, as it has in others,416 that the
State must grant scholarships in Venezuelan public institutions to Jorge Antonio Barrios
Ortuño, Carlos Alberto Ortuño, Ronis David Barrios Alzul, Roniel Alberto Barrios Alzul, Benito
Antonio Barrios Rangel, Annarys Alexandra Barrios Rangel, Michael Jose Barrios Espinosa,
Dinosca Alexandra Barrios Espinosa, Luis Alberto Alzul, Orianny Nazareth, Oriana Nazareth,
Luilmari Carolina Guzman Barrios, Luiseidys Yulianny Guzmán Barrios, Danilo David
Solórzano, Elvis Sarais Colorado Barrios, Cirilo Antonio Colorado Barrios, Lorena del Valle
Pugliese Barrios, Génesis Andreina Navarro Barrios, Victor Tomás Navarro Barrios, Heilin
Alejandra Navarro Barrios, Marcos Antonio Díaz Barrios, Sandra Marivi Betancourt Barrios
and Junior Jose Betancourt Barrios, that cover the educational costs corresponding to
enrolment and educational material, until the conclusion of their advanced education,
whether they undertake vocational or university studies. The State’s compliance with this
obligation means that the beneficiaries must take certain steps to exercise their right to this
measure of reparation. Therefore, those who request this measure of reparation, or their
legal representatives, have six months from notification of this judgment, to request their
scholarships from the State.
