Case History

On 31 January 2001 Mr Megrahi was convicted of the murders of the 243 passengers and the 16 crew on board PA 103 from London to New York, and 11 residents of Lockerbie, on 21 December 1988.

Mr Megrahi appealed his conviction. On 14 March 2002 the High Court refused his appeal.

In September 2003 Mr Megrahi asked the Commission to review his conviction. On 28 June 2007 the Commission referred his case to the High Court for determination. On 17 August 2009 Mr Megrahi abandoned his appeal. On 20 August 2009 the Scottish Ministers approved his release on compassionate grounds and he was released from prison. He returned to Libya, where he died on 20 May 2012

In July 2017 Aamer Anwar & Co, instructed by Mr Megrahi's widow and his family, asked the Commission to review Mr Megrahi's conviction. On 27 April 2018 the Commission accepted that application for a full review. Today the case has been referred back to the High Court.
