In the reparations agreement, the State undertook to “[r]equest the Guatemalan Forensic Anthropology Foundation (FAFG) and the National Institute of Forensic Science (INACIF) to provide information on findings related to the location of Edgar Fernando García’s remains through the Special Committee […] when appropriate.” The Court appreciates this undertaking by the State and, therefore, endorses this measure of reparation, in light of the terms established by the parties in the reparations agreement. 200. Despite this, the Court finds it necessary that the State conduct a serious search using appropriate judicial and administrative channels, during which every effort is made to determine the whereabouts of Edgar Fernando García, as soon as possible. This must be conducted systematically and rigorously, with adequate and appropriate human, technical and scientific resources and, if necessary, cooperation should be requested from other States. The family members must be informed of these measures and, when possible, their presence should be ensured. 285 If the victim is found deceased, his mortal remains must be returned to his family, as soon as possible, following genetic testing, and at no cost to them. Furthermore, the State must cover the funeral expenses, as appropriate, in agreement with the family. 286 C) Measures of integral guarantees of non-repetition C.1) reparation: rehabilitation, satisfaction, Measures of Satisfaction C.1.a) Publication and dissemination of the Judgment 201.

The Court assesses positively the willingness of the State to comply with the representatives’ request, and therefore endorses this measure as it was agreed. The State must also include in the publications the mention that the complete text of this Judgment will be available on the Court’s web page. C.1.b) Public act of acknowledgment of international responsibility 204. The representatives asked that the State make a public apology to the family of Edgar Fernando García and, to this end, they asked that “the President of the Republic of Guatemala, on behalf of the State, acknowledge responsibility for the facts and apologize to the family, [in a] ceremony to be held at the National Palace of Culture.” 205.
