Criminal Law Seminar:
Prosecuting the Pan Am Flight 103 bombing case
Lord Boyd, the chief prosecutor in the Lockerbie bombing trial, will discuss his experience of prosecuting the famously complex and controversial case that followed the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland.
The “Lockerbie trial” was held in the Netherlands, under Scots Law, following an agreement between the British government and Col. Gaddafi of Libya. Two Libyan nationals were charged with 270 counts of murder, having bombed the Pan Am flight, killing 259 passengers and crew and a further 11 persons on the ground in Lockerbie, Scotland.
