Gadhafi says Libyan suspects free to go to West
Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi refused to hand over two Libyan suspects in the 1988 Pan Am Flight 103 bombing but said they may go to the West if they wish. A British lawyer for the pair said they are reluctant to face trial abroad. The UN has imposed an air and arms embargo to pressure handover to the United States or Britain.
