Campbell granted ‘protective measures’ for Taylor tribunal

SUPERMODEL Naomi Campbell was today granted “protective measures” ahead of her appearance in court to give evidence in the case against former warlord Charles Taylor.

The Special Court for Sierra Leone granted her the right for a lawyer to be present in court to ensure that she did not give any evidence that might incriminate her.

The court said the lawyer would have “limited right to be heard solely on the admissibility of any questions put to Campbell which go to possible self-incrimination”.
