Order any other measures which the Court considers appropriate to remedy the injury caused by the disappearance of Baigorria and Garrido. 3. Order the Argentine State to pay the costs of these proceedings, including the honoraria of the professionals who have served as representatives of the victims both in their efforts before the Commission and in the proceedings before the Court.
