36. 关于第一类任意拘留，毛里塔尼亚政府表示，Ghadde 先生完全了解逮捕他的理由，他从被拘留时起就享有被拘留者有权享有的所有权利。政府确认，《刑法》中不存在大规模跨境犯罪的罪行，但公共检察官办公室在公报中使用这一表述只是为了宣传的目的；而不是一项起诉。政府明确指出，被起诉的罪行是腐败，“跨境”一词描述了实施可惩处行为的背景。适用于这些行为的条款载于第2016.014 号《反腐败法》，而不是《刑法》。
36. Regarding category I, the Government states that Mr. Ghadde was perfectly well informed of the grounds for his arrest and that he has enjoyed all the rights to which detainees are entitled from the start of his detention. The Government confirms that the offence of large-scale cross-border crimes does not exist in the Criminal Code but that the communiqué of the public prosecutor’s office in which the expression was used was intended for public information purposes only; it was not an indictment. The Government specifies that the offence being prosecuted is corruption and that the term cross-border describes the context in which the punishable acts were committed. The provisions that apply to the acts are contained in the Anti-Corruption Act No. 2016.014, not the Criminal Code.
