Ex Liberian warlord Charles Taylor, who was sentenced to 50 years for war crimes and crimes against humanity, is being "ill-treated" in his British jail, his family claimed on Tuesday.
"Information we got revealed that he is not given food and even water... If this continues for the next two days, Taylor may die in jail," family spokesperson Sando Johnson told reporters at a press conference in the Liberian capital Monrovia.
The spokesman said friends and contacts had obtained the information on Taylor's jail conditions and the family had not been in contact with the ex-warlord since his transfer to a British jail earlier this month under tight security from The Hague, where he had been held since the start of his trial in 2007.
