Death threats to the family of prosecution witness Varmuyan Sherif?

BBC News is reporting claims by Vamba Sherif, the brother of prosecution witness Varmuyan Sherif, that unknown men entered the family’s compound in Monrovia and made death threats, and that another written threat was subsequently received by the family.  The report comes one day after the Special Court prosecution raised concerns about identifying witnesses’ family members in open session.  It also comes one day after witness-protection concerns led the judges to order a closed session for the duration of testimony from the current witness.
