What now, it seems that terrorist the Scots freed may not be dying after all?
The evidence provided by the doctor is crucial as compassionate release under Scots law requires that a prisoner has less than three months to live.
Doubts about Megrahi’s life expectancy have already been raised by American relatives of the 270 victims of the bomb that blew up Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie on 21 December, 1988. But last night the Scottish Government said it would not publish details of the individual who gave the crucial advice.
Mr MacAskill has said he based his decision to release Megrahi on the opinions of a range of experts.
But this is contradicted by a decisive report sent to Mr MacAskill on 10 August.
While it noted that four prostate cancer specialists – two oncologists and two urologists – were consulted, the summary said: "Whether or not prognosis is more or less than three months, no specialist would be willing to say."

I never heard rumours that the Palestinians were responsible. The Iranians, yes, in revenge for the airliner shot down by the USA. Is this a bit of Zionist Propaganda? Anyway, the victims’ families would say that, wouldn’t they. With all the politicking going on in Edinburgh, the truth is getting less and less relevant. I suppose if he does die within the three months, the victim’s’ families will refuse to believe it and accuse Libya of lying. No-one can win this one.

It’s starting to look more and more like the Scots cut him loose to avoid the pending appeal that might, after all, have revealed that the investigation was as rushed and flawed as many have said, and that the allegations that the Palestinians, not the Libyans, brought down the flight are actually true.
