the case file contains the Haitian electoral identity document of “Lilia Jean” and the birth certificate of the same country for “Lilia Jean Pierre.” 58 80. The State also argued that there was a difference between the name of “Ana Virginia Nolasco,” that appears in the Merits report, and the name of “Ana Virgil” that Antonio Sensión mentioned in certain statements. Despite this, the Court takes note of the representatives’ explanation that the “correct name” of Mrs. Nolasco in Creole is “Ana Virgil,” which Antonio Sensión also indicated in his statement before the Court. 81. Lastly, a similar situation occurred with “William Medina Ferreras” and “Wilda Medina.” The birth certificate of Willian Medina Ferreras has been provided to the Court, 59 and although the latter is named “Wilda Medina” in the Merits report, the Court has been provided with documentation that substantiates that her name is Awilda Medina Pérez (infra footnote 183). 82. Taking into account the evidence provided to the Court in the form of documents substantiating identity and birth, and in accordance with the criteria concerning evidence that are applicable to the case (infra para. 193 to 198), this Court considers that the State’s arguments and the differences that exist in the said documents are insufficient to find that the persons named in the Merits report have not been duly identified, or to determine that they lack the family ties indicated, consequently, limiting their consideration as presumed victims. Moreover, it is understood that, as the representatives have indicated, Haitians living in the Dominican Republic tend to adopt the Spanish form of their names. 83. Based on the above, the Court determines that, for the effects of this Judgment, it will understand that the persons identified in the Merits report with other names – as in the case of Lilia Jean Pierre, who is also known as “Lilia Jean” or “Lilia Pierre” or “Lilia Pérez” or “Liliana Pérez”; of Ana Virginia Nolasco, whose name in Creole is “Ana Virgil,” and of those who, according to the documentation presented, have accredited that their names are Willian Medina Ferreras and Awilda Medina Pérez, who the Merits report refers to as “William Medina Ferreras” and “Wilda Medina” – are the same persons, respectively, and hereinafter the first names indicated in each case will be used. A.2.2. Persons whose place of birth could not be determined 84. With regard to those who were identified in the Merits report as Jeanty Fils-Aimé, born in “Dominican Republic” and Bersson Gelin, born “in Mencía, Pedernales, Dominican Republic,” the documentation issued by the State 60 casts doubts on these data, indicating that [neither Jeanty nor Bersson] were […] registered […] with those names […] in [its] database, because the identity card number does not correspond […] to that of an identity document, either [to the] previous or [to the] actual identity cards.” 61 Although Mr. Fils- 3495), and sheet with general information on Awilda Medina Pérez, issued by the Central Electoral Board, based on its master list of those registered, on July 4, 2012 (file before the Commission, annex 3, f. 2183). 58 Cf.
