The US Secretary of State is considering a request to examine whether BP lobbied the UK to try to secure the transfer of the Lockerbie bomber to Libya.

Hillary Clinton is looking at the request from four senators who claim the firm pressed for the release in the hope of securing an offshore oil deal.

The fact that Abdelbaset al-Megrahi has long outlived his predicted death seems pretty damning at the moment. What do you think Totse?

    Forgive my ignorance but why would BP want to have him released? Oil contracts?

    We all knew this at the time. Scotland released him and negotiated oil contracts at the same time. He is dying of cancer, he might as well do one good thing with his life.
