Lockerbie: Case closed



Wednesday, December 21, 1988 was the longest night of the year, the night of the winter solstice. At 6.30pm that evening Pan Am Flight 103 took off from London Heathrow airport en route to JFK New York. On board Clipper Maid of the Skies, as it was called, were 16 crew members and 243 passengers, many of whom were carrying Christmas gifts in their luggage for family and friends.

The innocent individuals and their families deserve to know if the man convicted was the man who carried out the attack, and a man possibly wrongly convicted the right to clear his name.
