Conduct an immediate, serious, and impartial investigation into the torture and rape of Gladys Carol Espinoza as established in this report, with a gender-aware perspective. 2. Identify all parties responsible for those acts, be they military or civilian, and impose on them the corresponding civil, administrative, and criminal penalties as a guarantee of nonrepetition. 3. Investigate and establish the civil, administrative, and criminal responsibilities of the medical personnel, officers of the National Police of Peru, agents of the Public Prosecution Service, and judicial officials who committed irregularities in connection with the allegations of torture lodged on behalf of Gladys Carol Espinoza. 4. Extend reparations to Gladys Carol Espinoza Gonzales and her next-of-kin for the human rights violations established herein. That redress shall be comprehensive and shall including treatment for her physical and mental health by specialized medical personnel and agreed on jointly with the victim, until her recovery can be established. 5. Adopt the legislative, administrative, and other measures necessary to ensure that allegations of torture and sexual violence involving members of the security forces are investigated on an ex officio basis and with due diligence. Implement training programs for the public officials responsible for enforcing those measures. 6. Design protocols to facilitate and encourage the effective, uniform, and transparent investigation of acts of physical, sexual, and psychological violence, taking into account the international provisions established in the Istanbul Protocol and other applicable international rules. 7. Develop training programs for state officials, taking into account the international provisions set forth in the Istanbul Protocol, to ensure those officials have the technical and scientific elements necessary for evaluating potential cases of torture or cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment. 8. Implement, within a reasonable time, permanent human rights education programs within all hierarchical levels of its police forces, and include in the curriculum of those training programs a particular reference to international human rights instruments, specifically those related to the protection of the rights of women, particularly their right to a life free of violence and discrimination.
