Default definitely, particular

Hi,

could you please tell me whether the words "definitely" and "particular" are the right ones in the following sentence:

If you are able to definitely determine the particular person responsible for the fault, I will enforce the compensation by legal action.

Definitely = meaning that they are absolutely sure that that particular person is responsible and noone else.
Particular = meaning a concrete person

Thank you very much.

Hanka
