REPARATIONS
151. The Applicant requests the Court to order that his liberty be restored. He also asks
the Court to order that damages be paid to him by the Respondent State for the
moral and material loss suffered by himself and that suffered by his friends and
relatives. The Applicant finally requests for orders on measures of satisfaction, nonrepetition and costs.
152. The Respondent State prays the Court to dismiss all the reliefs and orders sought
by the Applicant for lack of merit or not being supported with evidence.

153. The Court notes that, as Article 27( 1) of the Protocol provides, "If the Court finds that
there has been violation of a human or peoples' rights it shall make appropriate orders to
remedy the violation, including the payment of fair compensation or reparation".
154. In this respect, Rule 63 of the Rules provides that "The Court shall rule on the request
for the reparation by the same decision establishing the violation of a human and peoples'
rights, or if the circumstances so require, by a separate decision".
155. In its case law on reparations, the Court has ruled on "other reparations" in a
separate decision where the Parties have not adduced sufficient evidence or none
for it to do so in the main judgment44 or where it was necessary to hear the Parties
extensively.45
156. The Court notes that written and oral submissions made by the Parties offer
sufficient evidence to adequately consider the claims for reparation made in this
