Abdelbaset al-Megrahi is the only man ever convicted of the worst terrorist attack in UK history. Eight years after his death, his family are still trying to get his conviction overturned.
More than three decades after the Lockerbie bombing an appeal has been again been referred to the High Court.
The case of Megrahi has been a complex one since the day he was indicted on 270 counts of murder in November 1991.
Ten years later he was found guilty of killing the people who died when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over the Scottish town of Lockerbie.
Megrahi, who always proclaimed his innocence, unsuccessfully appealed against his conviction. But he was subsequently allowed to return home after it emerged that he had terminal cancer.
