SIERRA LEONE, AMPUTEE.LIFE AS AN AMPUTEE
Abu Bakarr Kargbo, 31, was one of the thousands of amputees afflicted by the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) atrocities during the civil war that devastated Sierra Leone from 1991 till 2002. He was amputated by the rebels at the eastern part of the Capital in January 20, 1999 when they
attacked Freetown. Unlike other amputees, he was not given the choice of what version of 'cut arm' or 'cut hand' he wanted - long sleeves or short sleeves. Today, he lives with his wife and his three children under poor
conditions in an abandoned camp for amputees, northwest of the capital, Freetown.

KURDS.
Since Abdullah Ocalan the leader of PKK was captured in the Greek embassy of Kenya and was already in his way to Turkey, members of the PKK were demanding that Greece offer political asylum to their leader. In a sign of passions that this will arouse among Ocalan's supporters Akwar
Serhan Aziz ,33 is engulfed by flames after he set himself ablaze in a protest outside the Greek parliament in Athens on February 15, 1999.

DOGFIGHTS, YUGOSLAVIA.
History of dogfights begins during Potato hunger when people from Ireland came to America with their dogs. As they were poor, the only
entertainment was dogfights. Croatian and Montenegrian sailors brought dogfights to Yugoslavia in 1982. Nowadays, dogfights with Pit Bull Terriers
are illegal and an easy way for Balkan organizers to earn a lot of money. Dogfight tournaments and local fights are organized all over Yugoslavia,
even during the war. To see the game, public from all parts of Yugoslavia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Croatia and Bosnia, pays a 50 Euros ticket. There is
always a big prize between the owners.
