CCPR/C/112/D/2325/2013 had written a confidential report on his health for the Attorney General, dated 3 December 2013. The author states that there is a risk that the disabilities ensuing from the bouts might become irreversible without appropriate care and that a new bout could affect his vital organs. On 21 October 2013, the author submitted a request for intervention on grounds of health to the Douala-Bonanjo Court of First Instance, the Wouri Douala tribunal de grande instance and the Littoral Region Court of Appeal in Douala, so that he could be evacuated and receive the necessary care in France. He also notified the Attorney General in a letter dated 3 December 2013 and the President of the Republic on 7 January 2014.11 2.12 On 17 February 2014, the author stated that on 16 January 2014, he had approached the National Commission on Human Rights and Freedoms, explaining his situation, particularly with regard to his health problems. On 21 January 2014, the President of the National Commission wrote to the author informing him that he had taken up the case with the Attorney General of the Court of Appeal and had sent a copy of the letter to the Minister of Justice, requesting urgent measures regarding his case. The National Commission also visited the prison from 22 to 24 January 2014 and subsequently highlighted the author’s case as cause for concern during a press conference. 2.13 On 31 December 2013, the author’s counsel met in person with the Attorney General, who recommended that he appeal to the Secretary of State for Prison Administration. On 2 January 2014, therefore, the author informed the latter of his situation and the granting of interim measures by the Committee. The author explains that, following contact between the French Consul General and the Attorney General on 29 January 2014, he was transferred to Laquintinie Hospital in Douala on 30 January 2014, which then referred him to Douala General Hospital, where he was admitted from 31 January to 14 February 2014. In its report of 14 February 2014, Douala General Hospital indicated that it did not have a department specializing in the care required by the author and recommended that he should be transferred to a specialized centre, without, however, indicating that he should be repatriated to France. 12 On 14 February 2014, the author was returned to the prison’s medical centre after an agreement had been reached between the prison and the hospital without his knowledge. Although the hospital is a public institution, the author claims to have been returned to prison because he could no longer pay the costs of his hospital stay and the prison’s financial difficulties meant that it could not pay for his medical care. On 17 February 2014, he wrote a letter to the Office of the President to inform it of the latest developments. 2.14 In a note dated 21 February 2014, the author submitted additional information reiterating all of his allegations relating to the complaints lodged against him, his arrest and detention, as well as those concerning the incompetence of the Cameroonian criminal courts and the incorrect classification of the allegations. He also reiterates that he has been the victim of a judicial conspiracy motivated by the Government’s desire to acquire his property rights. He believes that the habeas corpus proceedings relating to his release were not completed and were marred by procedural flaws because of the complicity of the judicial bodies. The author again highlights that he needs to be evacuated because of his health, as well as the steps that he has taken with the authorities in that regard. 11 12 6 The Committee decided to grant interim measures on 30 December 2013. The report indicates that the neurological attack could have been a psychiatric manifestation linked to severe depression with psychosomatic attacks and that it is essential to review the rare disease that he may suffer and owing to which, he claims, he should be included in a trial protocol in order to identify its possible link to the current clinical picture (right hemiplegia of probably psychogenic origin linked to a major depressive syndrome).
