Tunisia cooperates fully with the United Nations committees concerned with human rights by furnishing reports on the application of the relevant international instruments. Tunisia has presented an initial report on the implementation of the Convention against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading penalties or treatment and its third report on the implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Tunisia is ready to cooperate in a responsible and open way with all bodies, international and regional, concerned with human rights. With regard to the information communicated by the Special Rapporteur the Government transmitted the following replies: 461. Sayyed Ben Burawi Ferjani, when interrogated, did not claim that he had been subjected to violence by the police. He said that he had pains in his spine and was accordingly examined on various occasions by different doctors. He was found to be suffering from psychological problems due to his arrest and not to have any ailment of the nervous system. 462. In the case of Lutfi Zaitoun no mention was made of exposure to violence when he was interrogated. Some time after his arrest his family said that he suffered from headaches and the prison doctor was asked to examine and treat him. On 11 July 1988 the doctor reported he and a neurologist had examined Mr. Zaitoun. His pathological condition was normal and he was in no danger. The doctor administered the necessary medication. 463. Mohsin Habouria did not say during interrogation that he had been subjected to police violence. He showed no signs of violence. 464. Nothing in Taufik Mejri's file suggests that he was subjected to violence and during interrogation he did not say that he had been. 465. Salih Ben Abderrahmane El-Abidi, a former army corporal, was arrested on 18 June 1988. He was shown to have contravened army regulations. His case was examined on 14 March 1988 and he was released under a presidential amnesty on 4 May 1989. On 14 February 1990 he was taken to the El-Okba police post after refusing to move his lorry from a no-parking area. He was not arrested and was not subjected to violence. 466. Jamal El-Sayari and Abdelkader Ben Omar Bonazizi were arrested by the Siliana police on 14 October 1988 as suspected members of a non-recognized organization in possession of subversive leaflets. They were questioned by the Kef police and later by the competent authorities in Tunis. The interrogations went normally and no pressure was applied. The prohibited documents found in the suspects' possession were enough to establish their membership and clandestine activities. They were released with a warning not to engage in further subversive activity. 467. Moncef Matalla, Moulidi Abassi, Mohammed Taher Hamouda, Mabrouk Abdeljaouad and Noureddine Ibrahim were arrested by Ariana national guard personnel on 15 June 1989 for organizing an unauthorized meeting under cover of a circumcision ceremony. They were released on 22 June and were not maltreated or tortured.
