Scottish court rejects Lockerbie bombers appeal for release on health grounds.


A Scottish court refused to release convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi (Friday), rejecting his argument that he should be freed because he suffers from advanced prostate cancer.

Megrahi is serving a life sentance in Scotlands Greenock Prison for his role in the bombing of a Pan AM flight over the Scottish town of Lockerbie.
The bombing killed 270 people, including 11 on the ground.


Is the Scottish court making the right decision to reject him from being freed because of his condition?

Yes i do believe the court is doing the right thing by keeping him in jail because if you have one excuse like a disease, there will be more excuses for others to get out of prison.

He doesn't deserve to be freed after what he did. Let him sit in jail until his prostate cancer kills him.

Well either way, if he dies from his cancer or if he is prison for life, he is away from the public.

They should refuse. Just keep him away from society.
