Lockerbie, the case for an inquiry with Dr Jim Swire
With Elizabeth Palmer, foreign correspondent who covers Iran and the Middle East for major US network CBS News
Controversy continues over the release of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi and since his return to Tripoli last month diplomatic relations with Libya have been thrown deeper into the spotlight.
Join us at the Frontline Club for a special event that will bring together a distinguished panel to discuss the evidence that would have emerged had Megrahi’s case gone to appeal and the need for a full inquiry into the entire history of Lockerbie: Dr Jim Swire, whose daughter Flora was among the 270 killed when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie; human rights lawyer Gareth Peirce; Oliver Miles, UK ambassador to Libya until 1984 and the chairman of MEC International.
