8 son is buried. Accordingly, they requested the Court to require the State to provide the necessary guarantees concerning the granting of a definitive place for the burial of the remains of the former intern, and f) From the State’s report, there was no evidence that the Executive Branch had introduced the payment of the compensation in this case into the budget submitted to the National Congress. In this regard, the failure of the State to present a precise timetable concerning the way in which the compensation would be paid made it impossible to assess progress in compliance with this aspect. 8.
