CAT/C/49/D/432/2010 into further question the complainant’s authorship of these articles, in addition to the reasons put forward by the Federal Administrative Court. 18 4.12 The State party concludes that it is unlikely that the Ethiopian authorities have taken note of the complainant’s recent activities. The Ethiopian authorities are focusing all their attention on individuals whose activities go beyond “the usual behaviour”, or who exercise a particular function or activity that could pose a threat to the Ethiopian regime. However, the complainant did not present such a profile, be it political or otherwise, when she arrived in Switzerland and the State party deems it reasonable to exclude that she has subsequently developed such a profile. The State party maintains that the documents produced by the complainant do not show activity in Switzerland able to attract the attention of the Ethiopian authorities. The fact that the complainant is identified in photographs and video recordings is not sufficient to demonstrate a risk of persecution if returned. 4.13 In this regard, the State party maintains that numerous political demonstrations attended by the complainant’s compatriots take place in Switzerland and in other countries, that photographs or video recordings showing sometimes hundreds of people are made publicly available by the relevant media and that it is unlikely that the Ethiopian authorities are able to identify each person, or that they even have knowledge of the affiliation of the complainant with the above-mentioned organizations. 4.14 The State party submits that there is no evidence that the Ethiopian authorities have opened criminal proceedings against the complainant or that they have adopted other measures against her. Accordingly, the Federal Office for Migration and the Federal Administrative Court did not deem convincing the complainant’s claim that she has a function within the Ethiopian diaspora in Switzerland able to attract the attention of the Ethiopian authorities.19 In other words, the complainant has not established that if returned to Ethiopia she would run a risk of ill-treatment because of her political activities in Switzerland. 4.15 The State party submits that, in the light of the above, there are no substantial grounds for fearing that the complainant’s return to Ethiopia would expose her to a foreseeable, real and personal risk of torture, and invites the Committee to find that the return of the complainant to Ethiopia would not constitute a violation of the international obligations of Switzerland under article 3 of the Convention. The complainant’s comments on the State party’s observations 5.1 On 5 May 2011, the complainant commented on the State party’s observations. She notes that, according to recent reports, the Ethiopian authorities have increased their efforts to control the expression of dissent over the Internet20 and that they indeed try to identify opposition activities by analysing photos and video recordings of demonstrations, at least within Ethiopia.21 The complainant also refers to the worsening human rights situation in Ethiopia and to the authorities’ efforts to restrict freedom of expression. 22 She submits that the State party did not address the reports cited in her complaint to the Committee that 18 19 20 21 22 Reference is made to the judgement of the Federal Administrative Court of 6 August 2010.
