The only person against whom a charge of murder was proved in regard to the Lockerbie bombing case in 1988 had an appeal against conviction refused. A subsequent referral of the case back for further consideration by appellate judges was abandoned by the appellant. He was released on the statutory ground of compassion due to his imminent death. The appeal was revived in 2020 after further investigation and fresh evidence and referred to the criminal appeal court for Scotland.

洛克比飞机爆炸案的法律历史和另一个上诉的参考

唯一一个在 1988 年洛克比爆炸案中被证明谋杀指控的人被驳回了对定罪的上诉。上诉人放弃了随后将案件发回上诉法官进一步审议的决定。由于他即将死亡，他以法定的同情理由被释放。在进一步调查和提供新证据后，上诉于 2020 年恢复，并提交给苏格兰刑事上诉法院。
