In another case recounted by multiple witnesses, Mr Kamara is alleged to have personally gone into the house of one of the four...

Two Liberian leads in the investigation – Luther Sumo, a Lofa prosecutor and Patrick Massaly, Deputy Police Commissioner – testified by video link from Monrovia.

Another often repeated story recounted how the father of another of the plaintiffs had translated for a visiting international humanitarian organisation. The father told the organisation that a church and hospital had been destroyed by Ulimo under Kamara’s command.Seeking retribution Kamara returned, tied the man’s elbows behind his back and ordered a lieutenant known as “Ugly Boy” to chop open his rib cage with an axe. Numerous people reported that Kamara then had the heart cooked and ate it.

The defence lawyers made strong challenges to both Liberians asking whether they had taken the rape victim to have her medical injuries assessed for instance, or whether they had contacted the international humanitarian organisation for whom the murdered translator had worked. They had not. Even now they explained to the jury, there was no electricity or running water in Foya. Police did not have enough memory on their phones to take photographs and there was no money for phone data.
