8 measures. The State's confusion "over the nature of provisional measures, and the difference between these proceedings and those related to the filing of petitions before the Inter-American Commission" impacts on the effective fulfillment of these provisional measures; d) “the safe-conducts will remain in force until the Court renders a decision on the merits and only this instance is empowered to declare them no longer valid”; e) the physical and personal integrity of Father Pedro Ruquoy is still in peril, as shown by the statements of an "army colonel [,who] purportedly threatened to kill Father Ruquoy”; f) Ms. Solain Pie or Solain Pierre or Solange Pierre has recently faced threats and harassment, including threat phone calls making reference to her children, in respect of whom it is suspected that they are being controlled by strangers. Hence, they requested the Court to extend the provisional measures to those persons and to call upon the State to refrain from deporting or expelling them from the Dominican Republic; g) the lack of information on the investigations into the facts that prompted the adoption of the provisional measures regarding Messrs. Benito Tide-Méndez, Rafaelito Pérez-Charles, Antonio Sension and Berson Gelim and Ms. Andrea Alezy, prevents the Court from assessing the degree of compliance with the measures; h) on other occasions, the Court has ordered provisional measures based on the principle that “the members of a community at risk are at a similar risk [by reason of] their condition of individuals [that belong to] said community”. The beneficiaries of these measures are at a serious and imminent risk of being expelled, inasmuch as they are members of Haitian and Dominican-Haitian communities, which are allegedly subjected to mass and regular expulsions; i) “the few reports submitted by the [State]” regarding the situation at the bateyes provide no “details pertaining to their characteristics nor to the expulsion operations carried out in these communities”, and j) on August 10, 2005, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Dominican Republic rendered a judgment declaring the Memorandum of Understanding unconstitutional, thus eliminating the mechanism that had been created to coordinate and supervise the provisional measures ordered by the Court; and the State has not fostered conditions for said mechanism to be re-established. In this respect, they remarked that “active participation of the [beneficiaries] is an indispensable element for the operation of any supervision and implementation mechanism, in accordance with the Court’s precedents on provisional measures”. 7.
