MONROVIA – Former notorious rebel general turned Evangelist, Joshua Milton Blayhi, says greater consequences await ex-war perpetrators if they continue to shun the establishment of war crimes court in Liberia. The Liberian TRC came to a conclusion in 2010, filing a final report and recommending relevant actions by national authorities to ensure responsibility and reparations. He was known for his violence and atrocities during the First Liberian Civil War in the early 1990s. During the First Liberian Civil War he led a mercenary unit, many of whom were child soldiers, which was known as the Butt Naked Brigade. Blahyi’s rampage ended in 1996, when the civil war in Liberia was coming to an end.
