144The Commission argues, first of all, that the tactic of the Japanese applicants, consisting in divorcing each individual piece of evidence from its context and subjecting it to elaborate forensic analysis, is inappropriate for the purposes of examining the body of material evidence, which, when viewed in context, does establish the infringement (see, for example, Case T-334/94 Sarrio v Commission [1998] ECR II-1439, paragraph 103). The Commission points out that, in Cement, cited in paragraph 66 above, the Court of First Instance held that, in order to assess the evidential value of a document, first, regard should be had to the credibility of the account it contains and to the person from whom the document originates, the circumstances in which it came into being and the person to whom it was addressed and, second, account must be taken of whether, on its face, the document appears sound and reliable (paragraph 1838 of the judgment).
