They were twins captured in Gbarnga. 16 or 17 years old.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kamara insisted that he never spent any time in Foya town where his commander \u201cDeku\u201d was in charge. He said he was always on the frontlines. Kamara said he knew nothing of where food and fuel came from and denied he and his troops were told to \u201cpay yourself\u201d \u2013 meaning that they were not supplied by Ulimo but were to take food and fuel from civilians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Ulimo administration in Foya responsible for that I don\u2019t know anything,\u201d Kamara said. \u201cI was always on the frontline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Court observers said they thought the jurors would find that hard to believe given the volume of evidence they have heard from a variety of witnesses and testimony going back 15 years. Given there is no physical evidence in this trial, jurors\u2019 decision will come down to whether Kamara or the witnesses are telling the truth. If jurors question Kamara\u2019s honesty over atrocities that are so well documented, they may well conclude that he is being dishonest about his guilt.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike in the United States which requires a unanimous verdict to convict, the French system requires only a majority of the nine-person jury to find Kamara guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Outside the court Sabrina Delattre, lawyer for the plaintiffs \u2013 nine victims and Civitas Maxima, the Swiss-based human rights organization \u2013 said she was feeling confident about the trial. She highlighted the fact that Kamara had conceded that he was \u201cCo Kundi\u201d during the war; that he had been in Foya during the four-month Ulimo occupation in 1993 and that he knew of no other Co Kundis in the district at the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thing that is really specific about this case is that Kunti is denying a lot of things but he\u2019s not denying that he was in Foya at the time. He\u2019s also confirmed that his name was Co Kundi at the time and and he confirmed yesterday that he\u2019s the only person in Ulimo whose name was Co Kundi so I\u2019m really confused now that he\u2019s saying the witnesses are mistaken about the fact that Co Kundi was there in 1993 because Kundi is saying the same thing. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>Delattre also rejected Kamara\u2019s argument that witnesses were trying to win asylum or travel to Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been working on this case for a long time and some people have already been here and given their statements to the judge and they always went back to their city; went back to their life in Liberia,\u201d Delattre said. \u201cNothing like that happened. Right now some of the witness in the trial are already back to Liberia. So I think this is a nonsense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also today came the surprise news that Alieu Kosiah, the Ulimo commander and Kamara ally who was convicted of crimes against humanity in Switzerland in 2021, will testify in person on Friday on Kamara\u2019s behalf. Kosiah was convicted of multiple atrocities including the use of child soldiers. In an inexplicable decision, that helped seal his conviction, Kosiah called a man who told the court that he had been a child when Kosiah recruited him as a fighter as one of Kosiah\u2019s own character witnesses.<\/p>\n<p>Having a man convicted of multiple atrocities defend him on Friday may further undermine Kamara\u2019s claim of innocence in the minds of the jurors.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the day, one of the plaintiffs in the case accused Kamara of forced labor\u2014one of the charges for which he\u2019s being prosecuted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember specifically one moment when Co Kundi ordered his bodyguards to grab me to carry on forced labor,\u201d the witness said. The man, now in his 50s, alleged that 50 to 100 other men in the town were forcefully abducted by Kamara and other ULIMO commanders.<\/p>\n<p>He said the civilians gathered looted items, including cars, cocoa, coffee, and parts scrapped from a generator that served the whole town of Foya and put them into a six-tire truck with logs. The victim said they pushed the truck to the town of Solomba along the Liberian-Guinean border about 23 kilometers away.<\/p>\n<p>The victim told the court Kamara and his soldiers would sing as they drove the civilians \u201cTill go, any bush shake you die, any bush shake, your heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe really went through terror to carry those things,\u201d he said confirming that people died on the march. \u201cI didn\u2019t see people being killed. But there was shooting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thierry Fusina, the president of the court, asked whether human parts were used at checkpoints.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, yes. I\u2019ve spoken of human beings\u2014 my brother-in-law, his head was cut off.\u201d It was put on a stake, the victim said. \u201cThe head was placed at the front of a checkpoint and people passing had to do like this,\u201d he said demonstrating a salute.<\/p>\n<p>ULIMO captured Lofa County from Charles Taylor\u2019s National Patriotic Front in 1993. Many of the witnesses in this trial have claimed that they and other civilians were tortured, killed, and subjected to forced labor for their alleged support of the NPFL. Their testimonies were corroborated by Wednesday\u2019s first witness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne terrible moment was a guy they accused of being with Charles Taylor. His penis was cut off. True life story,\u201d the witness said. \u201cHe ran against a wall. Still they killed him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said as a result of the soldiers\u2019 alleged human rights violations, Alhaji Kromah, then leader of ULIMO, went to Foya to apologize to the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe brought some cattle. I think he was still apologizing to the people of Foya because the disaster of Foya\u201d the man said.<\/p>\n<p>Kamara claimed Kromah made the apology in 1996 when he was campaigning for elections and would not have done so otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>The trial continues on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
