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 after further investigation and fresh evidence and referred to the criminal appeal court for Scotland.

洛克比飞机轰炸案和最后上诉

唯一在1988年就洛克比爆炸案被证明谋杀指控的人拒绝定罪上诉。上诉人放弃了随后将案件转回上诉法院进行进一步审议的决定。由于他即将去世，他以同情为由被释放。经过进一步调查和新的证据，上诉被撤销，并移交给苏格兰刑事上诉法院。
