From 1997 to 2009, Timothy McFadden was head of the UN Detention Unit in Scheveningen, near The Hague. In an interview from April 2005, McFadden speaks about life and the atmosphere in the detention unit and how detainees who were on different sides of the conflict during the war in the former Yugoslavia relate to each other.
