Gordon Brown was told last night that he must seek the immediate return of the Lockerbie bomber to Britain.
A senior senator in the United States has written to the Prime Minister to protest that Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi's early release on compassionate grounds on August 20 was granted on the assumption he had only three months to live.
Charles Schumer said that period had now elapsed and there was speculation that the severity of the Libyan's condition had been exaggerated.
There is growing pressure for all of Megrahi's medical papers to be published, as well as monthly updates on his health which he is required to give to the authorities in Scotland.
Mr Schumer, from New York, said: 'The bottom line is Megrahi should have never been released in the first place but it would be even more outrageous if he were to be able to live a long and free life after his release.' He said he had written to Mr Brown 'demanding' that the British Government seek Megrahi's immediate transfer back to a Scottish jail.
'The victims of Pan Am Flight 103 didn't get a second chance at life and neither should Megrahi,' he said. 'Justice in this case was life in prison, no exceptions.'
Rosemary Wolfe, president of Justice for Pan-Am 103, which represents the families of the 270 people who died, said last night: 'It does not surprise me that he is alive and well. It was a major mistake for the Scots to let him go. It was just horrible.'

The limey govt is lying through their collective lying teeth. It’s always been about business deals and bucks.

Interesting that the Senator can keep such a close eye on this while our economy continues to slide every day....
Gee, but our decades-long relationship with the Wahhabist lunatics who run Saudi Arabia has never been about business or bucks.
I'll take door #2, Monty.
Too late now upchuck.
Of course it has. And your point?
I may be wrong, but I thought I read this story, ehm... about three months ago.
Some people wax indignant over some terrorists, but then ignore other terrorists.
Must be getting near election time. Chucky is being forced to make believe he cares about something other than his own smarmy self.
That’s true. Kill ‘em all.
We will read about this Muslim again in the months and years from now.
IMO
Not necessary, just some consistency please.
Oh goody. Medical reports. Maybe we can get Major Hasan to chime in on this killer’s condition.
I’m not running the govt, friend. Take it up with the feds.
It always is, isn’t it?
Yup.
I thought he died a short while ago?
