Previously unseen evidence gathered for the aborted appeal hearing of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, the former Libyan intelligence officer convicted of the bombing, supports Mr Mesbahi’s claim and suggests that the bombers belonged to the extremist group the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (PFLP-GC)." "The new evidence not only casts new doubt on the conviction of Megrahi, but adds weight to previous claims that the truth about the bombing was covered up by Britain and the US because they did not want to antagonise Syria, a key power on the doorstep of Saddam Hussein’s Iraq." "...the Foreign Office said that the police investigation remained open because Scottish police and prosecutors “have always made it clear that they believe Mr Megrahi did not act alone”. The Iranian government declined to comment, but has previously strongly denied involvement in Lockerbie." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
