Jon Arrizabalaga Leiñena fue detenido en su domicilio de Pasai-Antxo, Guipúzcoa, el 20 de diciembre de 1994, por miembros de la guardia civil que lo condujeron primeramente a la comandancia del Antiguo en San Sebastián y con posterioridad a la Dirección General en Madrid. Habría sido sometido a golpes, intentos de asfixia y corriente eléctrica. El 22 del mismo mes, y tras prestar declaración ante un juez de la Audiencia Nacional, fue puesto en libertad sin cargos. 624. Además de los casos a los que el Gobierno se refirió de manera específica, éste indicó que todas las demás personas mencionadas habían sido detenidas por realizar actividades en favor de la banda armada ETA. En el marco de este tipo de detenciones es habitual, por parte de los afectados, denunciar la existencia de malos tratos. Ahora bien en ningún momento, durante la detención, traslado y permanencia en las dependencias policiales, se produjeron tales malos tratos. Sri Lanka Information transmitted to the Government 625. By letter dated 18 September 1995 the Special Rapporteur advised the Government that he had received information about Vijayan Vimalendran, who was reportedly detained on 2 October 1993 in Colombo by members of the Military Intelligence Unit. At an unknown place of detention, officials allegedly bound his hands and legs with chains, beat him with broom handles on the soles of his feet and poured petrol over his head, after which they covered his head with bags. He was kept blindfolded for most of his detention, which lasted until 11 December 1993. 626. The Special Rapporteur also informed the Government of further reports he had received with respect to the case transmitted on 5 August 1994 of Arulappu Jude Arulrajah, who had allegedly been tortured by army officials after his arrest on 2 October 1993. The Government had replied on 2 November 1994 that a medical examination had not revealed injury to his genitals, as alleged. The source of the allegations had since indicated that, although allegations with respect to the cutting of his genitals were apparently not reported to the junior medical officer conducting the examination, the officer had found at least 27 scars consistent with the allegation made of assault with clubs, kicks and suspension by the wrists with ligature. The source also provided the Special Rapporteur with a certified copy of that medical report, as submitted to the court of appeal. In addition, the source expressed the following concerns regarding the detention of Arulappu Jude Arulrajah at Panagoda army camp: that while the camp was made an authorized place of detention on 1 October 1993, that information was not published in the Official Gazette until 15 February 1994; that the detained should not have been held at Panagoda beyond the 24-hour period during which the army is required to hand over a suspect to the police; and that the army had not informed the Human Rights Task Force (HRTF) of his arrest, as required by the Emergency Regulations.
