44. In light of the foregoing, the Court deems it reasonable to award the Applicant the total sum of 25,000,000 CFA Francs, in compensation for the loss of income arising from the suspension of his weekly newspaper, L 'Ouragan, and the reduced number of copies produced after the resumption of publication. 45. On compensation for loss of physical belongings and reimbursement of expenses for the purchase of new equipment, the Court notes that the Applicant did not tender any document in support of his claims and failed to establish the causal link between the wrongful acts committed by the Respondent State and the damage he suffered. 46. As the Court has already underscored in its Judgment in the Matter of Reverend Christopher Mtiki/a v United Republic of Tanzania 3, it does not suffice to show that the Respondent State committed a wrongful act to claim compensation; it is equally necessary to produce evidence of the alleged damages and the prejudice suffered. 47. Since the Applicant has failed to meet that requirement, the Court rules that his claims regarding the loss and acquisition of part of the equipment of L 'Ouragan are unfounded and therefore dismisses the claims. 48 . On the claim for reimbursement of expenditure incurred to obtain visit permits and on the transfer of the Applicant to a more ventilated part of the prison, the Court holds that the said payments were not required by law and the Applicant was therefore not supposed to pay the wardens to obtain visit permits or for the transfer. 49. However, the Court finds no difficulty in recog nising that the family of the Applicant incurred transport expenses to visit him in prison. It is also of the opinion that the amount of 78,000 CFA Francs, claimed by the Applicant is reasonable, and on the basis of equity, decides to award him the said amount. Reverend Christopher R.
