Change of Start Date for Taylor Defence: July 13, 2009

Posted by Webmaster on June 20, 2009

On June 18, 2009, the Trial Chamber II of the Special Court for Sierra Leone ordered the Taylor defence to open their case on July 13 2009. This is a change from the previously ordered date of June 29 2009. A Status Conference will take place on July 6 2009  at the ICC building in The Hague. Mr. Charles Taylor, testifying in his own defence will take the witness stand on July 13, 2009.

    Hi, is there a media mean to watch the trial? like a TV station or URL

  2. I am a Sierra Leonean. The war from Liberia forced me to cross over to Liberia. All my relatives were affected in Kono District. Liberia is now my home. I am glad to have found this information on the web to keep me in touch.
    Thank you for keeping the public informed.

    • I don’t know why the trial dates keep being postponed. The trial must go on uninterrupted to justice can take its course. Is Taylor trying to buy the ICC?
