I found the solution and I am going to answer to myself one more time.
To my mind, In fact, the method "checkForLock" doesn't do its job like said in its description.
To ACTUALLY check if a nodeRef is locked or not, we need to do the following code and not use "checkForLock" :

To Check For a lock on a NodeRef :

LockStatus lLockStatus = lockService.getLockStatus( lNodeRef );
         if (lLockStatus.equals( LockStatus.LOCK_OWNER ))
         {
            unlockWith( lNodeRef, AuthenticationUtil.getCurrentUserName() );
         }
         if (lLockStatus.equals( LockStatus.LOCKED ))
         {
            String lUsername = (String) nodeService.getProperty( lNodeRef,
                  ContentModel.PROP_LOCK_OWNER );
            unlockWith( lNodeRef, lUsername );
         }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

To Unlock a nodeRef :

private void unlockWith(final NodeRef pNodeRef, String pUsername) {
      String lCurrentUsername = AuthenticationUtil.getCurrentUserName();
      AuthenticationUtil.RunAsWork<Object> lWork = new AuthenticationUtil.RunAsWork<Object>() {

         public Object doWork() throws Exception {

            lockService.unlock( pNodeRef );
            return null;
         }
      };
      AuthenticationUtil.runAs( lWork, pUsername );
      AuthenticationUtil.setCurrentUser( lCurrentUsername );   
   }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
