Senators Call for Inquiry into Lockerbie Bomber Release

A group of US senators has repeated calls for an inquiry into the release of the Lockerbie bomber, following a meeting with Prime Minister David Cameron.


Claims have been made that BP lobbied for the release, but Mr Cameron said it was the Scottish government that was responsible for freeing Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi.


New York senator Kirsten Gillibrand said justice had not been served.


Mr Cameron has asked the UK's top civil servant to review government papers, but he has rejected US demands for an inquiry.


Megrahi was freed by Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill on compassionate grounds and allowed to go home to Libya.


He has prostate cancer and, at the time, was said to have as little as three months to live. Megrahi is still alive almost a year later.


Ms Gillibrand said it was clear a full investigation into the release was still needed.


"This is about how we fight terrorism. We cannot have a convicted terrorist be told that he had three months to live and released and sitting in the lap of luxury for up to 10 years," she said.


"That is not justice served and, when we are trying to be able to be effective in fighting terrorism worldwide as allies, we cannot tolerate a convicted terrorist going free on the basis of evidence that may well have been fraudulent."


Senator Chuck Schumer, also from New York, said there was "too much suspicion to brush this aside".


"The only way to restore the integrity of what happened and to continue the integrity of the British government is to do a full and complete investigation," he said.
