Lockerbie bombing suspect is now in US custody
A Libyan man is being held in the United States on suspicion of constructing the bomb that destroyed Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie 34 years ago. The Boeing 747 explosion killed 270 people. It is the worst terrorist attack in Great Britains history. All 259 passengers and crew on board the jumbo jet destined for New York from London died, and another 11 people were killed in Lockerbie when the wreckage demolished their homes. The United States charged Abu Agila Masud two years ago, stating that he was a crucial figure in the December 21, 1988, attack. It's truly insane how one person can use a single weapon to kill 270 people. The good thing is that security at most airports in modern countries is improving to the point where this will never happen again. On the other hand, I believe it's rather remarkable that the authorities tracked out the bomb's creator 30 years later. It demonstrates the professionalism of the policemen assigned to this investigation.

I wonder what made the new discoveries possible.
