TRIPOLI, Libya – The former Libyan intelligence officer Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, who was convicted of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, has died in Libya, his brother told AFP on Sunday.

"He died an hour ago," Abdelhakim al-Megrahi said, putting the time of death at shortly after 1:00pm local time.

The UK Foreign Office could not confirm the report Sunday, however it said it was "seeking further information."

Megrahi, 60, was convicted in a Scottish court in 2001 for his role in the December 1998 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. Most of those killed in the bombing of the Boeing 747 jet were Americans.

All 259 passengers and crew died in the tragedy, along with 11 people on the ground.

Megrahi was released on compassionate grounds in 2009 and allowed to return to Libya. Doctors said at the time that he had terminal cancer and only three months left to live.

HuffPo agrees, must be some meme-building going on. I love that term “stability” — libs and rads always use that one to justify supporting monstrous regimes, and forget all about it when they dogpile on some bloody uprising.

And may they all look like maxine waters.

The sub-human savage actually killed 270 people that night.

Actually it was in retalliation for the downing of the iranian airbus by the USS Vincennes in 1988.

Libya’s response to Eldorado Canyon was the September 1986 hijacking of Pan Am flight 73

The iranian/hezbollah attempt was foiled two months before the bombing when German Police seized a Toshiba radio packed with Semtex (the exact same style bomb that was used on PA103). The libyans were asked to use their network in Malta to smuggle the bomb onto a U.S. bound flight.
