If you have the time, read this.  Absolutely devastating https://www.private-eye.co.uk/pictures/special_reports/lockerbie-2025.pdf

How I've missed it for over 23 years I can't explain.

As the UN appointed observer puts it:

'12. Furthermore, the Opinion of the Court seems to be inconsistent in a basic respect: while the first accused was found "guilty," the second accused was found "not guilty." It is to be noted that the judgement, in the latter's case, was not "not proven," but "not guilty." This is totally incomprehensible for any rational observer when one considers that the indictment in its very essence was based on the joint action of the two accused in Malta.'

FWIW his report on the appeal was as damming  https://i-p-o.org/koechler-lockerbie-appeal_report.htm

And as Foot put's it: 'The judges brought shame and disgrace to all those who believed in Scottish justice'
Well, whatever, nevermind
