Libyan bomber loses appeal

The Libyan convicted of the Lockerbie bombing has lost his appeal. Abdel Baset Ali Mohmed Al-Megrahi was jailed for life for his part in the bombing which killed 259 people on board Pan AM flight 103 and 11 people on the ground in the Scottish town of Lockerbie. He will now be transferred to Scotland to serve his sentence -- the original trial judge recommended at least 20 years.
