The witness said the first time he saw Massaquoi was in 2003 among other generals. Many Liberian witnesses had told the court the same story in hearings held here in March and April. As with earlier witnesses in Liberia, today’s witnesses gave inconsistent testimonies and Massaquoi’s defence lawyer made the most of it. He said World War One and Two (sequence of wars in 2003 in Liberia) occurred in June and lasted for one week each. He said the third phase of the war – World War Three - began early July 2003 and lasted into August.
