Sierra Leone's 'trafficked' orphans
Parents of dozens of children taken from Sierra Leone nearly twenty years ago are threatening legal action.
They have accused Help a Needy Child International (HANCI) of trafficking their children during the height of the country's rebel war. The organisation, which is now banned, has denied the allegations and says that it only dealt with genuine adoption cases.
One of the children living with her adoptive parents in the USA has spoken out.
