Campbell was given a few 'dirty-looking stones' in a pouch.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell has told the war crimes tribunal of ex-Liberia President Charles Taylor that she was given a few "dirty-looking" stones.
Ms Campbell is being asked about allegations that Mr Taylor gave her "blood diamonds" as a gift in 1997.

He denies the charges and says he never sold or traded diamonds for weapons.
