| Sumario: | A well-established principle in international law recognizes that treaties apply to acts, facts or situations produced after their entry into force.\nThe justification behind this principle is legal certainty because the non-retroactivity of treaties prevents incertitude. Enforced disappearance of persons, as a permanent or continuous crime as long as the fate and whereabouts of the disappeared are known, affects that principle and has led the Inter-American Court of Human Rights to habilitate its temporal competence even in cases where the facts were originated before the entry into force of a treaty. Based on this development, it has also recognized the international responsibility of the State. This article maintains that this is a right interpretation of the Court and it is based in the particular nature of the crime, respectful of the pacta sunt servanda because this is not a retroactive application of the treaty but an immediate application of it.\n |
