The Bombing of Pan Am 103

Over a decade after the Lockerbie bombing, following much debate and international negotiation, the accused finally stand trial.

While the joint Scottish and FBI investigation closes in on the identity of the �mystery shopper�, a CIA asset could hold the key to the identity of the Pan Am 103 bombers.

The Frankfurt luggage list and bomb-damaged clothing leads Scottish CID to a small clothes shop on the island of Malta. Was this the origin of the bomb?

The Scottish police head to the US with new evidence and a potential breakthrough. But the CIA appears to be withholding crucial intelligence on a possible bomb-maker.

In the weeks following the bombing, the pressure to make progress is immense. The joint Scottish-FBI investigation closes in on its first suspect.

21 December 1988. A bomb detonates on board Pan Am flight 103 above Lockerbie. The attack kills 270 people. The Scottish police and FBI must join forces to find the perpetrators.
