N'DJAMENA, CHAD: "Since when has justice come all the way to Chad?" a former political prisoner asked as a group of torture victims discussed the idea of prosecuting the country's exiled ex-dictator Hissène Habré. Habré, who brutalized this impoverished country from 1982 to 1990, was then living safely in a seaside villa across the continent in Senegal, enjoying the $14 million he reportedly looted from the treasury on his way into exile.
