Summary of the Request

The Request describes a potential economic/property harm due to the expropriation of a portion of land, owned by the Requesters, as part of the Program.

Specifically, the Request states that the owners of the land area have not received the respective indemnification since 2011, when the decree of expropriation was issued. However, the Requesters cannot benefit from the use of the land and must continue paying property taxes. Likewise, they stress that this harm is consequence of bad practices by the local government in a Project financed by the IDB.
