6 it is a guarantee of non-repetition. That pursuant to paragraph 137 of the Judgment, in that same act, “the State must publicly honor the dedication and value of two people involved in the facts of the present case: the Police Commissioner, César Augusto Medina Mateo, who was murdered and Mr. Abraham Méndez García, a prosecutor who had to go into exile due to the investigations he carried out.” (the underlining does not belong to the original) That as can be concluded from paragraph 123(f) of the Judgment it was the representatives of the victims themselves who requested a public act. 21. That due to all of the above, the act of acknowledgment of responsibility cannot be private. 23. That based on that stated by the representatives, the public act carried out by the State must be limited to its acknowledgment of responsibility, in the terms of paragraphs 136 and 137 of the Judgment, thus abstaining from referring to any other type of reparations granted to the beneficiaries. 24. That the participation of the President or Vice-President of the Republic in the mentioned public act is at the State’s discretion. * * * 25. That when supervising the overall compliance of the Judgment issued in the present case, and after analyzing the information provided by the State, the Inter-American Commission, and the representatives, the Court considers it necessary that the State present information on the following matters pending compliance: a) investigation, identification, and punishment of the instigators and perpetrators of the extrajudicial killing of Messrs. Carpio Nicolle, Villacorta Fajardo, Ávila Guzmán, and Rivas González, as well as of the serious injuries to Sydney Shaw Díaz (first, second, and third operative paragraphs of the Judgment); b) realization of a public act of acknowledgment of responsibility (fourth operative paragraph of the Judgment); c) payment of the remaining amount of the compensations set for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages (sixth and seventh operative paragraphs of the Judgment), and e) payment of the remaining amount for costs and expenses (eighth operative paragraph of the Judgment). 26.
