B. Investigative measures
440. The Commission asked that an investigation be conducted into the facts concerning
the human rights violations relating to slave labor and that the investigation be conducted
impartially and effectively and within a reasonable time in order to clarify the facts fully,
identify those responsible and impose the corresponding sanctions.
441. Additionally, the Commission asked that the corresponding administrative, disciplinary
and criminal measures be ordered with regard to the acts or omissions of the State officials
which contributed to the denial of justice and the impunity of the facts of this case. It asked
that special emphasis be placed on the following circumstances: (i) that administrative rather
than criminal proceedings were opened to investigate the disappearances; (ii) that
administrative and labor proceedings were opened to investigate slave labor, and (iii) that
the only criminal investigation opened in relation to this offense had prescribed.
442. The representatives asked the Court to require the State to ensure that the facts
are investigated by impartial, independent and competent bodies within a reasonable time.
They argued that the State was obliged to remove all the obstacles that prevented the
investigation of the facts and the prosecution and eventual conviction of those responsible
for the grave human rights violations in this case.
443.
The State made no comment on this point.
