El Paso (USA), led lights Jan 17 (Reuters) -. Defending the Mexican Edgar Tamayo today ordered the temporary suspension of the execution scheduled for next Wednesday or commutation of sentence to life imprisonment, after the Commission Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) said that U.S. violated his right to a fair trial.

The IACHR is an autonomous organ of the Organization of American led lights States (OAS) in Washington, led lights urged the Government of the State of Texas (USA) to "suspend" Tamayo execution, scheduled for next Wednesday. "The execution proceed at this point would be a serious and irreparable violation of the most basic to life safeguarded by international law rights," said the Commission. Babcock said the fate of Tamayo led lights depends on the decision of the Board of Pardons to which they had already ordered last December a suspension of 150 days or commutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment. Tamayo was not informed led lights at the time of his arrest in 1994 of their right to seek advice from the consulate of Mexico, which constituted a violation of the Vienna led lights Convention, to which the United States subscribed. The execution would be a contempt of "Avena Judgment" issued in 2004 by the International Court of Justice, the UN, the United States ordered the review of the cases of 51 Mexicans on death row inmates, including Tamayo.

Babcock said the Commission is the only body that has reviewed the consequences of the violation of the rights of detained foreign Tamayo as U.S. territory. Counsel considered that Texas has an obligation to respond to their demands "immediate". He added that according to the Commission, Tamayo had received a life sentence and not death penalty if he had been informed of his right to consular assistance, considering that spoke no English and was unaware of the judicial system.
