ORDER OF THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS OF AUGUST 21, 2013 PROVISIONAL MEASURES REGARDING HONDURAS CASE OF PACHECO TERUEL ET AL. HAVING SEEN: 1. The Order of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (hereinafter “the Inter-American Court,” “the Court,” or “the Tribunal”) issued on February 13, 2013, in which necessary and effective provisional measures were granted in order to avoid harm to the life and personal integrity of Sandra Lorena Ramos and her three minor children, in force until September 30, 2013. 2. The notes of the Secretariat of the Court (hereinafter “the Secretariat”) of July 5, and August 1, 2013, wherein he communicated that the period established for the State of Honduras (hereinafter “the State” or “Honduras”) to file its first brief on the implementation of the provisional measures lapsed on May 22, 2013. In light of this, the State was asked to present the report as soon as possible. 3. The brief of August 6, 2013, wherein the State forwarded information on these provisional measures. 4. The briefs of August 15 and 16, 2013, wherein the representatives of the beneficiaries (hereinafter “the representatives”) and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (hereinafter “the Inter-American Commission” or “the Commission”), respectively, submitted their observations to the State’s report. CONSIDERING THAT: 1. In regard to the implementation of the ordered provisional measures, the Court notes that on February 15, 2013, the State communicated with the representatives so as to request information in order to contact Sandra Lorena Ramos to coordinate the respective provisional measures. That same day, the representatives informed the State that they had tried to communicate with Mrs. Ramos but her cell seemed to be deactivated and they did not know the address of her new residence, to which the State expressed that it was waiting for this information. Moreover, the State reported that the facts in this case establish the crime of threat to physical integrity and this type of crime falls under the same category as public criminal offenses which depend on prosecution and to date no complaint has been filed before the Public Ministry by the beneficiary. 2. In this regard, the representatives stated that "in [their] recent interview with Sandra Lorena Ramos, [she] said that threats to both her safety and physical integrity and that of their youngest daughters had ceased because she took measures into her own hands; specifically [the] change of address and cell phone number. [Mrs. Ramos] estimated that at the moment, she does not want to receive any support from the authorities, as this would lead to her being more easily identified in an unsafe environment.”
