dock98 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Ex-Liberian President Charles Taylor ordered militias to eat the flesh of their enemies, a former death squad leader has told his war crimes trial.Joseph "Zigzag" Marzah said Mr Taylor had instructed his fighters in Liberia to even eat UN peacekeepers to "set an example for the people to be afraid".Mr Taylor is on trial at The Hague for backing rebels in Sierra Leone in an 11-year war in which thousands died.He has denied the 11 charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes.The trial at the UN-backed Special Court for Sierra Leone has been moved away from West Africa because of fears that it could lead to renewed instability in the region.
