English: MONROVIA, Liberia - A daily news chalk board in Monrovia, Liberia,

displays the latest headlines on the trial of former Liberian president Charles Taylor at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, the Netherlands. Boards such as this are a main source of news in Monrovia, where many people do not have the financial resources to purchase a daily paper.

This news edition from May 24, 2008, featured excerpts from the testimony of Moses Blah, former Vice President under Taylor, who denied having knowledge of Taylor’s participation in alleged crimes.
