To mark one year of Liberian journalists rally in Monrovia to detest the brutalization of media practitioners, the Press Union of Liberia (PUL) says litigation is the best reprimand for security forcesâ heavy-handedness.
On Thursday, March 11, 2020, Liberian journalists under the leadership of the Press Union of Liberia paraded the principal streets of Monrovia to draw national government, civil society, and the international community attention to security forces brutality against the Media in Liberia.
The PUL asserts that going forward all attacks on journalists will be analyzed to determine its merit for a possible court action on a case-by-case basis.

The ongoing trial of war crime indictee Gibril Massaquoi may not be garnering the kind of public attention it rightly deserves probably because of the restrictions that prevent direct public access to ongoing proceedings.
From indications so far, it appears that prosecution witnesses may be experiencing difficulty recalling events and dates accurately. In one instance for example, accused Gibril is placed at the Waterside Bridge in Monrovia and others at locations outside Monrovia in the interior.
According to informed sources, recalling history, during the April 14, 1996 outbreak of fighting in Monrovia, Taylor’s NPFL forces and Kromah’s ULIMO forces were pitted against the ULIMO-J forces of Roosevelt Johnson and those of George Boley’s LPC. Accordingly, it is possible that Taylor’s forces, which included RUF elements, counted Gibril Massaquoi within its ranks during that period.
