circumstances of his detention, the initial transport of the alleged victim in a taxi to the police station, and then, twenty minutes thereafter, to the Regional Hospital in Santo Domingo de los Colorados, constitute the State’s failure to comply with the obligations derived from the Convention. Therefore, the Court will not rule on the possible violation of Mr. Vera Vera's human rights that may have been committed during this period. B.2.2. First admission in the Public Hospital of Santo Domingo de los Colorados 48. Next, it is gathered from the body of evidence that on April 12, 1993, upon being admitted to the Emergency room of the Regional Hospital, Mr. Pedro Miguel Vera Vera was in an “inebriated state and with a gunshot wound at the height of his left thoracic region.” He remained “hospitalized in the monitoring room” of the institution, and according to the records of the Emergency room, a radiograph of the thorax was pending.47 49. At 2:00 hours on April 13, 1993, it was noted in the record that Mr. Vera Vera “continued complaining,” and, at 7:00 hours of that same day, it was noted that he had spent the night “irritable and complaining,” that he had undergone a radiograph, with “discharge pending,” and that on two occasions he “vomited food residue of a brown color.”48 At noon, the alleged victim was discharged by three doctors on duty given that, according to their opinion, his wound did not merit hospitalization.49 According to the medical record, at that point in time he was “in an improved state,” and he was prescribed “general care.” Mr. Vera Vera was discharged from the Hospital, escorted by members of the [Office of Criminal Investigations of Santo Domingo de los Colorados].”50 50.
