Sounds like some are claiming the release was a quid pro quo with the Libyans in exchange for oil contracts and other business deals.Frankly, nothing would surprise me at this point.The British Government is under pressure after allegations of an alleged trade deal behind the release of Lockerbie bomber Abdul Basset al Megrahi.
The Libyans are adamant Megrahi’s release has always been tied up with the oil and gas business and massive contracts with with British companies like BP.
Specifically Colonel Gaddaffi’s son Seif insists whenever he met British officials to discuss business, Meghrahi’s release was a condition of a deal being struck.![]()
