Libya’s New Justice Minister Agrees to Provide New Lockerbie Patsies

Mohammed al-Alagi said he would co-operate with prosecutors from Scotland trying to find out who else, other than Abdelbaset ali Mohmed al-Megrahi, carried out Britain’s biggest mass murder.

His remark at a news conference last night was an about-turn from the position he took earlier this week, when he said the case was closed.

The change of tack was given a cautious welcome by those who lost loved ones as a result of the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland, which killed 270 people in 1988. It was also welcomed by the Scottish Government.

The Crown Office has asked Libya’s National Transitional Council (NTC) for access to papers or witnesses that could implicate more suspects in the terrorist attack, including the deposed Libyan leader, Muammar al-Gaddafi.
