identifying those responsible, and imposing the corresponding punishments.
3.
Make adequate reparation for the human rights violations shown in this report, both
materially and morally, including just compensation, the establishment and dissemination of the historical
truth of what happened, and recovering of memories of the disappeared victim. The fact that the family
members of Mr. Jorge Vásquez Durand do not live in Ecuador may not constitute an impediment to
implementing this and all the recommendations. To that end, the State needs to overcome any and all hurdles
to ensure their effective implementation.
4.
Adopt such measures as may be necessary to prevent any such events from occurring in the
future, in keeping with the duty to protect and ensure the human rights recognized in the American
Convention. In particular, implement permanent programs on human rights and international humanitarian
law in the training institutes and academies of the Armed Forces.
5.
Make a public acknowledgment of international responsibility and a public apology for the
violations declared in the instant report.
Done and signed in the city of Washington, D.C., on the 23rd day of the month of March, 2015. (Signed):
