Augustinus Kouwenhoven helped West African warlord Charles Taylor carry out his atrocities, including rape, cannibalism, pillage, and murder.

Dressed in an expensive-looking suit, including black leather shoes with secret socks and an expensive watch, Kouwenhoven had the demeanour of an accomplished man and seemed relaxed.

For state prosecutor Christopher Burke the matter was simple, the Dutch supreme court had requested that SA extradite Kouwenhoven to the Netherlands to face justice for the war crimes he committed in a war which led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. His offences included “complicity in co-committing violations of the laws and customs of war, while the offence results in death or involves rape, committed multiple times”.

Extradition and prosecution followed by execution 💀....probably nothing will happen 🙄
