Lockerbie Case: Libyans Won't Deport Bomber 


TRIPOLI, Libya-The Libyan rebel government won't deport the man convicted of
the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, its justice minister said.

In this Aug. 20, 2009 file photo, Libyan Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, who was
found guilty of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, gestures on his arrival in
Tripoli, Libya. The Libyan rebels' interim government says it will not
deport the man convicted of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing. 

New York senators last week asked the Libyan national transitional
government to hold Abdel-Baset al-Megrahi fully accountable for the bombing
of Pan Am flight 103, which killed 270 people.

But the transitional government's justice minister, Mohammed al-Alagi, said
Sunday in Tripoli that the request by American senators had "no meaning"
because Mr. Megrahi had already been tried and convicted.

"We will not hand over any Libyan citizen. It was Gadhafi who handed over
Libyan citizens," he said, referring to the government's decision to turn
Mr. Megrahi over to a Scottish court for trial.

The Scottish government released Mr. Megrahi in 2009, saying it believed he
would soon die of cancer. He was greeted as a hero in his native Libya and
met with Col. Moammar Gadhafi.

New York Senator Charles Schumer had encouraged the new Libyan leadership to
hold Mr. Megrahi accountable. "A new Libya can send a strong statement to
the world by declaring it will no longer be a haven for this convicted
terrorist," he said.

Scottish officials overseeing Mr. Megrahi's parole have said they want to
contact him now that the fighting between Libyan forces and rebels has
reached Tripoli.

Mr. Megrahi is the only person convicted of the Lockerbie bombing, Britain's
worst terrorist attack. His release after serving eight years of a life
sentence infuriated the families of many victims, who suspected Britain's
real motive was to improve relations with oil-rich Libya.

Mr. Megrahi's current whereabouts are unknown, and on Saturday no one
answered the door of his villa, hidden behind high walls in an upscale
Tripoli neighborhood. A neighbor, Yousef Mohammed, said he saw Mr. Megrahi's
son in the street on Friday and assumed the family hadn't left the area.

No private guards or rebel fighters were visible in the quiet side street of
walled villas. The neighbor, said he often saw Mr. Megrahi in the
neighborhood. "This guy is sick. All the time, I saw him" in the heelchair,
he said.

Mr. Mohammed said that he and other neighbors didn't believe Mr. Megrahi was
involved in the Lockerbie bombing and that the family was well liked in the
neighborhood.
