Where Is Abdelbaset al-Megrahi? One Of East Renfrewshire Council’s Prisoners Is Missing In Libya (Photos)

The poser hinges on Gaddafi’s son Seif al-Islam. The rebels, aka Libya’s BNP, say he has been sezied. He says he’s not been kidnapped. He makes a pretty convincing argument as he sits in a car outside the famous Rixos hotel, flashing two fingers in the air like a man well used to ordering doubles of everything.

Previously, Seif has been accused of plagiarising his Ph.D in economics from the LSE.

You might well wonder about lies and liars – and then wonder about Tony Blair, who when Prime Minister had a hand in the release of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, the man jailed for the biggest mass murder on British soil when a jet was blown up over Lockerbie. The killer had three months to live at the time of his release on compassionate grounds on August 20, 2009.

He’s still alive. (Well, maybe.)

But where is he? Laughable as it seems, a condition of his early release from jail was that he kept contact with East Renfrewshire Council. He was only freed on licence. Can he be found? Will he give himself up and ask to be taken to the safety of a Scottish jail..?

Hundreds of Libyan rebels stormed Gadhafi's compound Tuesday, charging wildly through the symbolic heart of the crumbling regime as they killed loyalist troops, looted armories and knocked the head off a statue of the besieged dictator.
