Father of Lockerbie bomb victim in Libya talks

THE father of a student killed in the Lockerbie bombing has visited Libya and is thought to have met with people associated with the atrocity.

Dr Jim Swire, whose daughter Flora died in the incident 23 years ago, has just returned from the country held responsible for the bombing of Pan Am 103 on December 21, 1988.

The news comes as Frank Mulholland, the Lord Advocate, attended the annual Lockerbie memorial service in the US for the first time.
