The book<\/strong><\/p>\n For the first time the man known as \u2018the Lockerbie bomber\u2019 tells his story. This long-awaited book argues that, far from being an unrepentant terrorist, Abdelbaset al-Megrahi was the innocent victim of dirty politics, a flawed investigation and judicial folly. Based on exclusive interviews with Megrahi himself, and conclusive new evidence, it destroys the prosecution case and puts the Scottish criminal justice system in the dock.

He has studied the Lockerbie case for 22 years and from 2006 to 2009 was a researcher with Megrahi\u2019s legal team. He is the co-author of What Everyone in Britain Should Know about Crime and Punishment (<\/em>with David Wilson), Blackstone Press 1998, What Everyone in Britain Should Know about the Police <\/em>(with David Wilson and Douglas Sharp), Blackstone Press 2001, and Cover-up of Convenience: The hidden scandal of Lockerbie<\/em> (with Ian Ferguson), Mainstream 2001.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The book For the first time the man known as \u2018the Lockerbie bomber\u2019 tells his story.
