Worklist FYI task is not visible after updating protectednumberattribute2

Question

Hi,
I need you guys help please. The case is that or bpel process is creating a FYI task for user notification where a custom worklist screen is created to retreive FYI tasks for the users.
If any of the FYI task is later updated with the API, the task becomes invisible in the worklist application and also cannot be retreived with the worklist API.
Below is the code for retreiving and updating the task. Its an struts action and the init method is executed the first time to display all tasks.
Later the delete method is invoked and again the init method to see the remaining tasks.
