5 d. that the Court declared in the judgment on the merits, that the judicial guarantees set forth in Article 8(1) of the Convention, in relation to Article 1(1) of the same, were violated to the detriment of the relatives of Mr. Nicholas Blake, inasmuch as those relatives have the right to demand that the disappearance and death of their son and brother be effectively investigated by the Guatemalan authorities, that proceedings be instituted against those responsible for the crimes, that appropriate punishment be imposed on the perpetrators, and that the relatives be compensated for the damages and injuries they sustained; and e. that the Court also declared in said judgment that the right to humane treatment set forth in Article 5 of the Convention in relation to Article 1(1) of the same was violated by the State to the detriment of the relatives of Mr. Nicholas Chapman Blake, inasmuch as his disappearance caused his family suffering and anguish, a sense of insecurity, and frustration and impotence in the face of the Guatemalan authorities’ failure to investigate; and that the burning of the mortal remains of Mr. Nicholas Blake increased their suffering. 21. As the Court already determined that it was not competent to render a decision on the deprivation of liberty and the death of Nicholas Blake (supra 20(a)), it will limit itself to decide on reparations within the framework established in the judgment on the merits, which refers exclusively to the violation, by Guatemala, of Articles 5 ( Right to Humane Treatment), and 8(1) (Right to a Fair Trial) of the American Convention in conjunction with Article 1(1) of the same, to the detriment of the relatives of Mr. Nicholas Blake.
