Wüstenschiff

""By DR JIM SWIRE, Father of victim Flora
MY FEELINGS are a mixture of sadness and relief. Sadness Megrahi has died and relief that his suffering is over.
I became friends with him when, after hearing all the evidence, I decided he was not responsible for my darling daughter’s murder.
I last saw him in December in Tripoli and he told me: “Don’t worry, the material that shows what really happened will be made available to you after my death.”
I already have lots of evidence which convinces me he was innocent. Now there must be an independent inquiry into who did murder our loved ones and why they were allowed to do it.
Who paid for, sanctioned and carried out this atrocity which resulted in their deaths?
Why were they not protected when the increased terror threat was known to the British Government of the time and Heathrow had been broken into in the early hours of that day?
They never expected anyone to make such a fuss as we British relatives have done. We are not going to go away. ""

Mit Hilfe eines in Togo sichergestellten Timers wurde das «Beweisstück» von Lockerbie identifiziert. Doch darin steckt ein Quarz mit der Endziffer 4, den es 1985 noch gar nicht gab. Für die nach Libyen gelieferten Timer wurden nur Quarze mit der Endziffer 3 benutzt.
