Why Finland is holding a war crimes trial in Liberia © Getty Images An estimated 250,000 people died in the fighting between 1989 and 2003 Tales of atrocities dominate accounts of Liberia s years of civil war but not a single person has been tried for war crimes in the country s courts. This is despite the estimated 250,000 dead - amounting to around 8% of the population at the time - and survivors willing to testify about the conflicts from 1989 to 1997 and 1999 to 2003. On Tuesday, in an unprecedented move, a war crimes case is due to be heard in the capital, Monrovia. But this will be a Finnish court holding a special session, not part of the Liberian judicial process.
