I~CH't\ ACH PR (i '"J African Commission on Human Rights our Collective Responsibility Human and Peoples' Rights ~(W,l\fj~ 72. Regarding the Complainants' claim that the Respondent State's legal system has no procedure for claiming collective rights, the Commission notes that the Respondent State replies that its courts are independent and open to everyone with "a justiciable matter". The Respondent State fails to respond to the specific claim that no procedure exists for claiming collective rights protected in the African Charter. 73. The Respondent State does not also demonstrate how the courts could have provided effective and sufficient remedies for the Victims in this particular circumstance. As the Commission has previously noted, merely listing "in abstract" the existence of remedies without relating them to the circumstances of the case, and without showing how they might provide effective redress in the circumstances of the case" does not satisfy the onus on the State Party to demonstrate the existence of local remedies that the Complainant ought to exhaust. 20 74. The Commission takes the view that the Respondent State has failed to supply enough specific evidence to demonstrate that available local remedies have the potential to be effective and sufficient in addressing the claims of the Victims in this Communication. Accordingly, the Commission finds that the Respondent State has not satisfactorily discharged the onus placed on to show that effective and sufficient local remedies exist which the Complainant ought to have exhausted. No burden has therefore shifted back to the Complainant. 75. Accordingly the Commission is convinced that the State Party has not provided effective and sufficient remedies that the Victims could have accessed. The Commission therefore takes the view that one of the exceptions to the requirement to exhaust local remedies applies to this Communication as there are no remedies to be exhausted. The Commission finds that Article 56(5) of the African Charter has been satisfied. Decision of the African Commission on Admissibilih) 76. In view of the above, the Commission declares this Communication Admissible in accordance 20 Article with Article 56 of the African Charter. 19 v Eritrea (2007) ACHPR para 73.
