OTHER FORMS OF REPARATION D) (Measures of Satisfaction and Non Repetition Guarantees) 136. In this subparagraph the Court will determine those measures of satisfaction aimed at redressing immaterial damage that does not have a pecuniary character, as well as those other public or publicly visible measures.176 a) Obligation to investigate the facts of the instant case and to identify, prosecute and punish the perpetrators 137. The Court has found that more than thirteen years after the events the impunity of those responsible for them continues to prevail. The Court has defined impunity as the overall lack of investigation, arrest, prosecution and conviction of those responsible for violations of the rights protected by the American Convention.177 The State is obliged to combat such a situation by all available means, as it fosters the chronic repetition of human rights violations and renders victims and their next of kin completely defenseless.178 138. To that effect, the State must, within reasonable time, remove all obstacles, de facto and de jure, that perpetuate impunity; provide adequate safety guarantees to the victims, other witnesses, judicial officers, prosecutors, and other relevant law enforcement officials; and use all means at its disposal to expedite the investigation and judicial process,179 in order to identify, prosecute and punish the perpetrators of the violent events and adopt any necessary emergency measures at the Prison; of the excessive use of force and of the extrajudicial execution of several inmates. 176 Cf.
