Libyan compo offer upsets families
Families of those killed when a bomb exploded aboard Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie expressed emotions ranging from rage to scepticism to grudging acceptance of a €2.8bn settlement offer from Libya.
Some said the offer, which would settle a 1996 lawsuit against the Libyan government and provide around €8.6m to each family, was politically motivated by Libya’s efforts to get US sanctions lifted.
