Lawmakers demand Lockerbie bomber medical files

None

Scottish lawmakers demanded Tuesday that their government publish full details of the medical advice that led to the release from prison of the Lockerbie bomber almost a year ago.

 

Opposition Labour Party legislators called for the prognosis given on Abdel Baset al-Megrahi's health before he was freed on compassionate grounds - and the names of the doctors who made the assessment - to be made public. The decision to release al-Megrahi from a Scottish prison has stirred anger in the United States and prompted US senators to begin an investigation into the decision. (AP)
