[until November 30, 2009, when it proceeded] to pay on the [interest].”
The representative indicated that, owing to the exchange rate applied and
the manner of allocating the State’s payments, it “owed at the present
time a portion of the amount ordered in the [J]udgment based on the
application of the amounts deposited by the State of Argentina in principal
and interest.” According to the foregoing, the representative indicated
that as of May 31, 2011, the State owed Mr. Bueno Alves an amount
corresponding to $295,967.16 (two hundred ninety-five thousand, nine
hundred sixty-seven Argentine pesos and sixteen cents).
b) Regarding Inés María del Carmen Afonso Fernández and Verónica Inés
Bueno Afonso, the representative confirmed that payment was made to
each “in dollars of the United States of America” to their bank accounts in
the National Bank of Argentina in Uruguay, “without tax implications.”
However, regarding these two victims, the representative observed that,
even when this amount was credited to their respective accounts on
December 14, 2009, this credit was not communicated to them until
January 20, 2010, for which reason this latter date should be considered
“the actual date of payment.” The representative also pointed out that the
State owed “a portion of the amount ordered in the Judgment based on
the application of unforeseen interest [...] at the moment of actual
payment,” that on May 31, 2011, had risen to $10,704.47 (ten thousand,
seven hundred and four Argentine pesos and forty-seven cents), for the
benefit of each of these two victims.
c) Concerning Juan Francisco Bueno and Ivonne Miriam Bueno, the
representative confirmed the State’s payments to Mr. Bueno Alves’s
account in HSBC Bank on January 4, 2010, in accordance with the special
authority granted for his benefit. The representative noted that, due to
the exchange rate applied and the manner of allocating the State’s
payments, the State “owed at the present time a portion of the amount
ordered in the [J]udgment.”
In accordance with the foregoing, the
representative indicated that as of May 31, 2011, the State owed each of
the two victims the amount of $9,920.42 (nine thousand, nine hundred
twenty Argentine pesos and forty-two cents), and
d) Concerning Ms. Tomasa Alves de Lima, the representative requested “the
release of the positive account balance in her favor as ordered by the
Court in its Judgment.” The representative indicated that “the legal
processes demanded by the State belong to the jurisdiction of the
[Oriental Republic of] Uruguay, and it’s necessary to consider the long
time periods – that is, years – that successive procedures would require,
[as well as] bearing in mind that at the end of Uruguay’s requested
process, future ministerial and consular certifications from both Uruguay
and Argentina would follow.” The representative added that the brothers,
Manuel Bueno Alves and Juan Francisco Bueno Alves, are the only rightful
successors in interest to Ms. Alves de Lima according to “the register and
identification of the relatives [that has been] provided in this case,” and
that both have decided to make use of the compensation owed to their
mother “for the purchase of a family mausoleum.” The representative
indicated that the pending interest payments on this compensation as of
May 31, 2011, totaled $51,652.00 (fifty-one thousand, six hundred fiftytwo Argentine pesos).
