CAT/C/54/D/468/2011 Furthermore, although he was not involved in political activities, the complainant states that he was suspected of collaborating with terrorists because of his links with a friend who had joined the Islamic Front. The complainant submits that he never appeared before the Blida military court and that the State party’s observation in that connection is the result of a misunderstanding due to an error of interpretation, since during the hearings the complainant said that he had been taken to the first military region in Blida, and not to the Blida military court. The complainant adds that he was under considerable pressure during the entire second hearing and that the question and-answer format used prevented him from speaking as he wished. As for the colleague whom he met several times and who was suspected of involvement in terrorist activities, the complainant states that he was a childhood friend who had chosen to join a terrorist movement during the civil war because of his religious beliefs. After the amnesty, the colleague had returned to the complainant’s neighbourhood. The complainant subsequently took him to the first military region in Blida for questioning. It was at that time, solely because of the sensitive nature of his former work, that the complainant aroused the suspicions of the security officers. The complainant stresses that he never spoke about his work in the army because he knew his duty and always sought to behave correctly. 5.2 The complainant further contends that the facts he submits are plausible, contrary to the observations of the State party. According to the complainant, the fact that he left Algeria without his identity documents is not surprising, since the Government had forbade him to leave the country, and he had no time to organiz e his departure. The complainant adds that during his first hearing he said that he did not know that his identity card had expired in 2005 because he did not know what to expect abroad and he was unaware that his card would be important for him abroad. With regard to the search warrant, whose authenticity and evidentiary value the State party challenges, the complainant states that the warrant simply attests to the information given by him and that he submitted it to the Swiss authorities late because his family did not dare to send him evidence through the post for fear of reprisals as a result of the complainant’s departure. In this connection, the complainant adds that documents of that type from the military region authorities generally contain no details of the penalty or the reason for the search because such information is considered secret. The complainant also reaffirms that the date of September 2000 appears on the search warrant because he began his military service in mid -September 2000 and then extended it by means of an employment contract signed in March 2002. As to the date of 11 December 2005 which appears on the search warrant dated 15 November 2005, the complainant points out that the warrant makes clear that he had until 11 December 2005 to report to the military authorities. Lastly, the complainant contends that the letter from Mr. N is not a letter of convenience and reiterates his arguments regarding the risk of torture.
