E/CN.4/1995/34 page 121 request of his counsel and in his official report the appointed doctor described Mr. Sy as being in good general health but noted the presence of "scars of grazes on the anterior sides of the forearms and legs" and referred to abdominal pains accompanied by hiccups for which he had already examined him twice since the commencement of his detention. When the abdominal symptoms recurred on 1 June 1993, Mody Sy was prescribed treatment and had a fibroscopy on 21 June 1993 and an X-ray of his lower back region on 14 July, the results being satisfactory. After an examining magistrate on 22 July 1993 ordered Mr. Sy to undergo a full examination, the doctor informed the magistrate that Mr. Sy had refused to undergo such an examination. In the case of Miss Ramata Guèye, a certificate supporting her allegations had not yet been produced before any authority. The procurator general to the court of appeal did not receive a complaint by Mr. Mody Sy’s lawyers until 30 July 1993. This complaint gave rise to an immediate inquiry, whose findings were reflected in a report of 4 August 1993 of the Deputy Senior Commander of the National Gendarmerie, Under-Director of Military Justice. All of the police officers participating in the investigation of the assassination were questioned, including those who had been charged by Mr. Sy and Miss Guèye, with the exception of a certain senior sergeant who was unknown in the Western Legion of the Dakar gendarmerie. The inquiry produced no result, apart from charges by some and denials by others, and a search of the entire premises of the Thiong gendarmerie had proved fruitless. South Africa Urgent appeals 633. The Special Rapporteur sent five urgent appeals to the Government on behalf of the people mentioned below. The dates on which the appeals were transmitted appear in parenthesis at the end of the corresponding summaries. 634. Johannes Setlae, an African National Congress (ANC) committee member in Mogogoe village, near Mafikeng, was detained on 12 January 1994 after police broke up a voter education meeting of about 100 people organized by members of the local ANC youth league. The local President of the youth league, Ofentse Kogotsitse, Johannes Setlae, and two other organizers of the meeting, at Ofentse’s home near the meeting place, were ordered to "disperse" but Ofentse argued that he was, in fact, at his home. The police then reportedly attempted to assault the four men. When Ofentse’s mother tried to intervene, one policeman allegedly hit her and she fell down, so prompting Johannes Setlae to throw an empty bottle at the police which struck one of the officers. The police reportedly then assaulted Johannes Setlae with blows from fists and open hands, booted feet, and sjamboks (whips), and arrested him. He was believed to be held incommunicado at Mmabatho police station and fears were expressed that he would be denied proper medical care for his injuries and be further subjected to ill-treatment. 635.
