British Super Model Naomi Campbell Testifies Against Former Liberia President Charles Taylor In The by double08(m): 5:24pm On Aug 05, 2010
She said 2 men knocked on her hotel room door in the middle of the night after retiring for a dinner held by Nelson Mandela in South Africa in 1997 and gave her a present from Charles Taylor and she said when she checked the present it the morning they were little dirty rocks she never knew they were diamonds because she is used to seeing shiny diamonds.
She actually donated the uncut diamonds to a charity


The prosecutors think they can establish evidence that Charles Taylor receives blood diamond from sierra lone in exchange for weapons,

^^^She claimed that she donated the diamonds to the Nelson Mandela foundation, but the foundation has denied ever receiving the diamonds.

Whoever is doing Naomi Campbell's PR needs to be fired.

Well, there's a twist to this.

She said she gave the diamonds to Jeremy Ratcliffe dude who in turn did NOT declare it to the foundation.

So the letter from the current head of the foundation is pretty much consistent with what Naomi said.

whether this is true or false is yet to determined but naomi's statement tallies witht the letter from the foundation
