'No evidence' of BP Megrahi plea
A review of US government records found no information about BP seeking to secure the release of the Lockerbie bomber, a State Department official said today.
The official made the comment at a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which is investigating whether the British-based oil company had sought the release of Libyan Abdel Baset al-Megrahi to help get a $900m (€660m) exploration agreement with Libya off the ground.
