195. Lastly, the Court notes that the representatives forwarded vouchers related to the
expenses paid to attend the public hearing held before this Court. Consequently, the Court
orders the State to reimburse the victims’ representatives the sum of US$4,407.65 (four
thousand four hundred and seven United States dollars and sixty-five cents), and to
reimburse Nilda del Valle Maldonado the sum of US$5,262.56 (five thousand two hundred
and sixty-two United States dollars and fifty-six cents). In addition, the Court orders, in
equity, that the State reimburse the representatives the sum of US$25,000.00 (twenty-five
thousand United States dollars) for their honorarium. The amounts established for the
victims’ representatives must be delivered directly to the Centro de Estudios Legales and
Sociales (CELS). At the stage of monitoring compliance with this Judgment, the Court may
establish that the State reimburse the victims or their representatives any subsequent
reasonable and duly authenticated expenses. 285
F.
Other measures requested
196. The Commission asked the Court to order the State to determine the administrative,
disciplinary, criminal or any other applicable type of responsibility for the flaws in the
investigation and processing of the facts, and the obstructions that have led to impunity. In
the Agreement signed with the representatives, the State undertook “to further the pending
administrative and summary actions concerning the personnel of the Argentine Federal
Police subject to its jurisdiction who may have taken part in the crime, concealed it, or
obstructed the investigation.”
197. In addition, the representatives asked the Court to order the State: to legislate and
regulate the full participation of victims and civil society organizations in administrative
proceedings, and to implement an external control mechanism for the administrative
proceedings; to incorporate into the “norms that govern the activities of the country’s law
enforcement personnel a clause that establishes the possibility of filing and investigating, or
reviewing, the disciplinary proceedings in relation to facts that have resulted in a
recommendation, decision or conviction by an international monitoring and control organ in
proceedings for human rights violations, in relation to the State”; to implement effective
mechanisms for full compliance with the decisions of international organs concerning human
rights; to amend the actual regulation of the institutional and corporate defense systems of
law enforcement agencies; to create and implement mechanisms to protect officials willing
to investigate; to create “a grant with the name of Jorge Omar Gutiérrez for police cadets to
take courses on human rights”; to recall “the memory of Jorge Omar Gutiérrez during the
ceremony of November 2 in which, each year, police agents who have died in the line of
duty are commemorated”; to implement “the necessary measures to ensure that the place
where the warehouse operated that adjoined the Avellaneda Second Police Precinct can be
designated for a purpose that benefits the public,” and to support “the dissemination of the
documentary that is being made on the facts of this case, as well as the re-edition of the
book ‘Maten a Gutiérrez’ by Daniel Otero”.
198. In this regard, the Court finds that the measures of reparation ordered in this
Judgment are sufficient based on the facts and human rights violations established.
G. Method of complying with the payments ordered
199. The State must make the payments of compensation for pecuniary and nonpecuniary damage and to reimburse costs and expenses established in this Judgment
