AILING Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali Mohmet al-Megrahi has formally dropped his appeal, as Scots ministers wrangle over whether to let him return home to die in Libya.
lawyers for the former Libyan agent - who has terminal prostate cancer - said he was "very weak, he is suffering from severe pain and he is in distress".
"His absolute priority is to die surrounded by his family."
Megrahi, the only person convicted over the murder of 270 people
The court approval for dropping his appeal removes one hurdle for him to be transferred

“His absolute priority is to die surrounded by his family.”
My priority to the POS would be quite a different death. I would play “we are family” as background noise.
I say let him suffer a long, excruciating death in prison...but that’s just me.
Let the sob rot in hell...
The same way he let his victims die, natch.../sarcasm
I am sure that the 270 people killed over Lockerbie would liked to have spent their last days with their families, but the Jihadist did not give them a choice, and he does not deserve a choice either,
no mercy for terrorists. let him rot in prison
Let's put him through explosive decompression, concussion, 300 mph air blasts, freezing temperatures, and sudden impact with the ground, and maybe he'll start to understand.
My family (and everyone with my surname) can trace their ancestry back to the area of Lockerbie, Scotland. I would hope that when this pus-filled scumbag dies, that he is surrounded by MY family.
Stomach cancer might be more fair. Throwing him burning out of a plane at 30000 feet might also work. Heck throw his family too if that’s what he wants.

Lest we forget. Excellent documentary. I remember the priest being interviewed years ago when I live in the UK. He has suffered enormous emotional pain and has battled alcoholism since that day. There is a wonderful and moving memorial in Lockerbie for the victims. What struck me so hard when I visited it....was how YOUNG most of those who died were.
As I'm sure those on Pan Am 103 would have liked to do as well rather than suddenly being thrown out into the freezing night air at 10,000 feet over Scotland when the jet they were riding in was torn apart from a hole blown in the plane by his bomb, their broken bodies and body parts, Christmas gift (It was Christmas time), luggage. and flaming jet fuel raining down on a small town in Scotland.
Some died still strapped in their seats with one section of the fuselage with 60 bodies still strapped in it miraculously landed between two houses in Lockerbie with out either home being damaged.
Also, the 11 people killed on the ground, when one of the plane's wings slammed into their homes, had probably assumed they'd have a peaceful death surrounded by family as well.
I'd say - shove him out of a plane at 10,000 feet & let fate take its course.
I agree 100 %. Only you said it better.
Precisely. Let’s make sure these terrorist scum know that once we catch them, they never see the light of day.
One wonders too if his family would give him a cheering farewell for having bombed all those infidels.
Wouldn’t it improve his chances with “Allah” if the Scots simply withdrew all treatment? Then they can say he was martyred after all.
Ship him off to the Manson Family.
(.....oh, wait, they're in the slammer, too).

Perhaps his pain and suffering are being worsened by Britain’s National Health Service policies as ordinary Britons have a far higher death rate from prostate cancer.
