Photo journal: Sierra Leone bridge house

During Sierra Leone's brutal 1991 - 2002 civil war, dozens of people were executed on the Aberdeen Road bridge in the seaside capital, Freetown.

Their bodies were thrown into the fishing waters below.

While most of those who could afford to get out of the country did, others hid anywhere they could manage.

One Sierra Leonean man, Mohamed Bangura, found an entrance to a hollow in the bridge during the heat of the fighting.
