No bomber release cover-up - PM

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has said there was "no conspiracy" leading to the release of the Lockerbie bomber.

He added there had also been "no cover-up" over the UK's dealings with the Scottish or Libyan governments.

And in a further development, a lawyer who represents the families of Lockerbie victims in the US is planning legal action to force the US government to publish details of its correspondence with London and Edinburgh in the run-up to Megrahi's release.
