Kenny MacAskill said Abu Agila Mohammad Mas’ud Kheir Al-Marimi was always a person of interest in the investigation.
Scotland’s former justice secretary has said a man in US custody on suspicion of building the bomb that downed Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie in 1988 was “always high on the list” of suspects.But the father of one of the victims said he wants to see the suspect tried before a UN court as opposed to one in the US or Scotland.
“The only surprise is that he’s now been apprehended, they’ve been looking for him for a while, Gaddafi would never release him. Barr said: “Let there be no mistake, no amount of time or distance will stop the US and our Scottish partners from pursuing justice in this case.” “I can’t help remembering the words of Nelson Mandela, who told us in Edinburgh in 1997, ‘no one country should complainant, prosecutor and judge’.
“The obvious way forward it seems to me is to resort to the United Nations and invite them to provide a court with appropriate facilities to try this man and hopefully to review all the evidence that was used against the unfortunate Megrahi.”
