(five thousand, five hundred and sixty United States dollars and seven cents) and, in
accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of the Court’s Rules on the operation of said
Fund, Peru was granted a period of time to submit any observations it deemed pertinent.
On December 19, 2022, the State submitted a brief in which it pointed out that only
receipts related to airfare expenses were presented, while no vouchers were submitted
in relation to the lodging, transportation and subsistence expenses incurred to attend
the public hearing on this case held in the city of Brasilia, Brazil, on August 24, 2022. In
this regard, as stated in the aforementioned report of December 12, 2022, the Court
notes that the per diem expenses were determined according to the per diem table of
the Organization of American States applicable to the city of Brasilia, Brazil, in force in
August 2022. Consequently, it was not necessary to submit any additional proof of such
expenses.
176. In light of Article 5 of the Rules for the Operation of the Fund, and in view of the
violations declared in this judgment and the fact that the requirements for access to the
Fund were met, the Court orders the State to reimburse the Fund in the amount of USD$
5,560.07 (five thousand, five hundred and sixty United States dollars and seven cents)
for the necessary expenses. Said amount shall be reimbursed within six months from
notification of this judgment.
H. Method of compliance with the payments ordered
177. The State shall pay the compensation ordered for non-pecuniary damage and to
reimburse costs and expenses as established in this judgment, directly to the victim
indicated therein, within one year of notification of this judgment, or it may bring forward
full payment in accordance with the following paragraphs.
178. In the event that the beneficiary has died or dies before he receives the respective
compensation, this amount shall be delivered directly to his heirs, in accordance with
the applicable domestic law.
179. The State shall comply with its monetary obligations through payment in United
States dollars or the equivalent in national currency, using for the respective calculation
the market exchange rate published or calculated by the relevant banking or financial
authority on the date closest to the day of payment.
180. If, for reasons that can be attributed to the beneficiary of the compensation or his
heirs, it is not possible to pay the amounts established within the period indicated, the
State shall deposit said amounts in his favor in an account or certificate of deposit in a
solvent Peruvian financial institution, in United States dollars, and on the most favorable
financial terms permitted by banking law and practice. If the corresponding compensation
is not claimed within ten years, the amounts shall be returned to the State with the accrued
interest.
