Claim Lockerbie hearings held in Malta

A secretive new probe into the Lockerbie bombing has been launched in Malta, it was claimed yesterday.

A report said Scottish prosecutors have asked the Maltese authorities to gather fresh evidence over the 1988 air disaster, caused by a bomb said to have originated in Malta.

The Crown Office refused to confirm the claims.
