In addition, it must investigate possible links between those directly responsible and their ranking superiors in the perpetration of the acts of torture, sexual violence and rape, individualizing those responsible at all levels of decision, whether municipal, state or federal. 339. This Court also considers that the State shall, within a reasonable time, determine, through its competent public institutions, the possible responsibilities of the officials who, through their actions, contributed to the perpetration of acts of re-victimization and institutional violence to the detriment of the eleven women and, as appropriate, apply the consequences established by domestic civil or criminal law.446 In keeping with its consistent case law, 447 the Court finds that the State shall ensure the full access and capacity to act of the victims or their next of kin at all stages of the investigation and prosecution of those responsible, pursuant to domestic law and the provisions of the American Convention. Likewise, the final judgments in the corresponding proceedings must be published, so that Mexican society may know the facts that are the purpose of this case, as well as those responsible, after consulting the victims with regard to those aspects that could affect their intimacy and privacy. D. Measures of rehabilitation and satisfaction, and guarantees of non-repetition D.1 Measure of rehabilitation 340. The Commission asked that the State “[p]rovide, free of charge, immediately, and for as long as necessary, medical and psychological or psychiatric care, as appropriate, to the victims in this case who request this and by mutual agreement with them.” The representatives asked the Court to require the State to guarantee the victims appropriate medical care provided by “trusted competent professionals […],” from either the public or private sector, as requested by the victims. The representatives also asked that Mexico be required to provide the psychological treatment required by the eleven victims and their next of kin affected by the events. In addition, they asked that the care include the possibility of receiving treatment from professionals in alternative medicine, such as acupuncture and chiropractice. The State indicated that “[t]he measures of reparation requested by the representatives aimed at the rehabilitation of the victims have been executed and the State should be allowed to continue executing them through its own mechanisms”; also, that such measures had been available to the victims since 2013. However, it indicated that, in order to have access to these measures, the victims would have to exhaust the procedures established in the domestic sphere. 341. The Court has verified the severe violations of personal integrity suffered by the eleven women and their family members as a result of the facts of this case (supra paras. 320 to 324). Therefore, the Court finds it necessary to establish a measure of reparation that provides adequate care for the physical, psychological or psychiatric problems suffered by the victims as a Case of V.R.P., V.P.C. et al. v.
