The suspect in the Lockerbie bombing set to face new US charges should stand trial not in America but in Scotland or the International Criminal Court, relatives of the terror attack’s victims have told The Telegraph.
Two family members of people who died in the December 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, the deadliest terror attack in modern British history, expressed concern that the suspect could be executed if put on trial in America.
