CONCURRING OPINION OF JUDGE MATSCHER

(Translation)

I voted in favour of finding that there had been no

violation, on the ground that, notwithstanding doubts about the

unfolding of certain events, no violation had been made out.

I also agreed with the Court's decision not to hear further

witnesses (or to hear again the witness already heard by the

Commission), because in view of the circumstances of the case

and, in particular, the time which had elapsed since the events

complained of (twelve years!), further inquiries into the facts

would not, in my view, have helped to throw any light on the

matters remaining in doubt.
