B.3. Alleged failure to exhaust domestic remedies with respect to the prison conditions of Rafael Rojas and Damas Vega Atencio 58. This Court recalls that the rule of prior exhaustion of domestic remedies is conceived in the interests of the State, since it seeks to exempt it from responding before an international body for acts attributed to it before it has had the opportunity to remedy them by its own means. 52 Therefore, the Court will analyze whether, in the instant case, the alleged victims filed the remedies that would allow the State to rectify the alleged violations of the Convention in relation to prison conditions at the CAI La Reforma. 53 59.
