On August 17, 2016, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights published Roca and others v. Peru, a ruling (only available in Spanish) it had taken in June, holding Peru responsible for violations of the American Convention on Human Rights and the Inter-American Convention on Forced Disappearances in a case involving the forced disappearance of  Tenerio Roca. According to the press release, Roca was travelling on a bus with his wife in July 1984 when he was arrested by members of the Navy and Investigative Police and taken to the Municipal Stadium of Huanta. His family was not informed of his whereabouts, and he has not been located since. The Court found that while investigations by military and civilian courts determined some basic facts such as the site of the mass grave where many of the persons taken from Roca’s last known location were buried, these investigations were neither diligent nor effective to determine Roca’s whereabouts, nor to identify and punish the perpetrators, nor were they conducted in a reasonable amount of time. The Court highlighted the severity of the situation by pointing out that thirty-two years after Roca’s disappearance, his family is still unable to ascertain his fate and his whereabouts.
