He submitted, among other things, that he had previously been imprisoned in Syria because of his oppositional activities; that he was still of interest to the Syrian authorities; and that he had been called up for reserve military service in Syria but had not complied with this summons. The Swedish authorities refused his request for asylum and ordered his deportation. The applicant complains that if he were to be deported to Syria he would be exposed to treatment contrary to Article 3 of the Convention, inter alia , because he is wanted by the Syrian authorities.         QUESTION TO THE PARTIES In the light of the applicant’s claims, the documents which have been submitted and relevant country information, would he face a risk of being subjected to treatment in breach of Article 3 of the Convention if he were deported to Syria? In particular, would he face such a risk on account of his previous oppositional activities, evasion of reserve military service, potential interest from the Syrian authorities and/or the situation for individuals returning to Syria?
