'''Charles Ghankay Taylor''' ({{lahirmati|[[Arthington]], [[Liberia]]|28|1|1948}}) adalah pemimpin [[Liberia]] yang menjadi [[Presiden Liberia]] ke-22. Ia mulai menjabat pada [[2 Agustus]] [[1997]] hingga [[11 Agustus]] [[2003]]. Ia menghadapi 11 tuntutan, antara lain mendukung pemberontakan dalam perang saudara di [[Sierra Leone]] yang berlangsung selama satu dekade. Setelah ditangkap, ia menghadapi pengadilan bentukan PBB di Sierra Leone. Penanganan kejahatan dilakukan di [[Den Haag]] ([[Belanda]]). |
|||
Pada tanggal 4 Juni 2007, ia mengacaukan awal peradilan kejahatan perangnya dengan memboikot proses pembahasan kasusnya dan memecat pengacaranya.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070604/ap_on_re_af/war_crimes_taylor;_ylt=AoH3KCalDcqfb6CfyIZ54.NvaA8F "Taylor boycotts his war crimes trial"], [[Yahoo]], diakses Juni 2007</ref> |

<!--He was a prominent [[warlord]] in the [[Liberian Civil War]] in the early 1990s, was elected president, was forced into [[exile]], and now faces trial. |
|||
In December 1989 Taylor launched an armed uprising from [[Côte d'Ivoire]]. His forces, known as the [[National Patriotic Front of Liberia]] (NPFL), soon controlled most of the country. Then-president [[Samuel Doe]] was overthrown, and tortured to death the following year by [[Yormie Johnson|Prince Johnson]], at that time an ally of Taylor. Doe's fall led to the [[politics|political]] fragmentation of the country into violent factionalism. In mid-1990, Prince Johnson's supporters split from Taylor's group and captured Monrovia for themselves, depriving Taylor of outright victory. |

Charles Taylor was born in [[Arthington, Liberia|Arthington]], a city near [[Monrovia]]. His mother was a member of the [[Gola (ethnic group)|Gola]] ethnic group. According to most reports his father was an [[Americo-Liberian]], although other sources claim he was actually an [[Afro-Trinidadian]] immigrant. Taylor was a student at [[Bentley College]] in [[Waltham, MA|Waltham]], [[Massachusetts]] from 1972 to 1977, earning a degree in economics. |

He was briefly arrested in 1979 after threatening to take over the Liberian [[diplomat]]ic mission in [[New York City|New York]] and was accused of embezzling roughly $900,000 as head of Liberia's General Services Administration. On [[May 24]], [[1984]], two [[United States Marshals Service|US Deputy Marshal]]s arrested Taylor in [[Somerville, Massachusetts]], on a warrant for extradition to face charges of embezzling $922,000 of government funds, intended for machinery parts, into a New York bank account. Citing a fear of assassination by Liberian agents, it was announced by Taylor's lawyer, former US Attorney General [[Ramsey Clark]], that Taylor would fight extradition from the safety of jail. He was detained in a House of Corrections in [[Plymouth, Massachusetts]]. On Sunday, [[September 15]], [[1985]], sometime around 8:30 pm, Taylor and four other inmates escaped from the jail by sawing through a bar covering a window in an unused laundry room. After dropping 12 feet to the ground by means of a knotted sheet, the five inmates climbed a fence. Shortly thereafter, Taylor and two other escapees were met at nearby Jordan Hospital by Taylor's wife, Enid Taylor, and Taylor's sister-in-law, Lucia Holmes Toweh. A getaway car was driven to [[Staten Island]], where Taylor then disappeared. The first escapee to be caught was apprehended on [[September 18]] in [[Brockton, Massachusetts]]; eventually all four of Taylor's fellow escapees would be tracked down, and Enid Taylor and Lucia Holmes Toweh were ordered held without bail on [[September 23]] for driving the getaway car. Taylor managed to flee the United States and shortly thereafter ended up in Libya where he underwent guerilla training under [[Muammar Qaddafi]]. Eventually he left Libya and used the training he gained there to begin a civil war in [[Liberia]]. |

During his absence for the peace talks in Ghana, it is alleged that the US urged the [[vice president]], [[Moses Blah]], to seize power. Upon his return, Taylor briefly dismissed Blah from his post, only to reinstate him a few days later. Meanwhile, the rebel group LURD initiated a siege of Monrovia, and several bloody battles were fought as Taylor's forces defeated rebel attempts to capture the city. The pressure on Taylor increased further as [[President of the United States|U.S. President]] [[George W. Bush]] stated that Taylor "must leave Liberia" twice in July 2003. |
