Lockerbie Bomb Believed In Suitcase, Witnesses Testify
Two British explosives experts testified at Camp Zeist that the Pan Am 103 device detonated inside a baggage container in the cargo hold, opposing the Swiss detonator maker’s wall attachment theory. Prosecutors say Libyan agents Abdel Basset Ali al Megrahi and Lamen Khalifa Fhimah planted the bomb that killed 270 people on December 21 1988. Christopher Peel of the British DERA described fuselage marks indicating a suitcase payload inside a metal container.
