The sixth session of the RUF trial resumed on Wednesday after a lengthy recess of three months. Due to bank holidays, no hearings were scheduled for Thursday. The week began with a status conference on Tuesday under Rule 65bis. As with past RUF Status Conferences, a single judge conducted the hearing.
The first witness called was Witness TF1-314, who testified in court on Wednesday and Friday and came back for the second half of cross examination on Monday, 7 November 2005. On Friday and Monday, the third accused, Augustine Gbao, did not attend the hearings.
