16 guarantees of due legal process therein. In that sense, I have ruled within this Court in the two last years, for example, inter alia, in the arguments of my Separate Opinions in the cases of López Álvarez v. Honduras (Judgment of February 01, 2006, paras. 53-55 of the Opinion), Massacre de Pueblo Bello v. Colômbia (Judgment of January 31, 2006, paras. 63-65 of the Opinion), Baldeón García v. Perú (Judgment of April 6, 2006, para. 10 of the Opinion), and Comunidade Indígena Sawhoyamaxa v. Paraguai (Judgment of March 29, 2006, para. 36 of the Opinion). I hope this Court soon has the courage to take this new qualitative step in its jurisprudential construction, since it did not take it in this Judgment of this case of Ximenes-Lopes. From the very day on which it takes it - I hope very soon - it shall be contributing to make it more difficult to repeat stories like Electra’s and Irene’s without punishment.
