The Netherlands only agreed to host his trial as long as he was imprisoned in another country if he was convicted.
In June that year, the UK government offered to house Taylor in a British jail if he was convicted.

Where he serves his sentence will be a significant factor when determining whether he is a viable candidate for future years. If he serves it in The Hague or even the UK I think that he will last a fair while but he might want to serve it close to his people in Africa (shoe in for 2013).

The BBC says he will serve it in the UK, because the government that was in power when he was arrested wanted this way or something. Although I have no exact link, I just heard it this morning.
