Public inquiry urged into Lockerbie bomber release

A UK public inquiry should be held into the release of the Lockerbie bomber, a backbench Tory MP said today.

Daniel Kawczynski, who chairs the Westminster all-party group on Libya, also called on Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill to apologise for the “huge error” in releasing Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi almost a year ago.
