Libyan man imprisoned for Lockerbie bombing is near death

Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, the Libyan man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing in 1988 is near death according to his brother. His brother insisted that al-Megrahi not return to prison, where he was sent after the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, which killed 270 people.
“He is between life and death, so what difference would prison make?” said his brother, Abdel-Nasser al-Megrahi. His brother was released from prison in 2009 after doctors stated that he had three months to live.
