## Resource

The long-awaited trial of Abu Agila Mohammad Masud Kheir Al-Marimi, the former Libyan intelligence official accused of orchestrating the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland — which killed 259 passengers and 11 people on the ground — is finally set to begin in January in Washington D.C. Originally scheduled for August, the trial was delayed after new evidence emerged, forcing the judge to grant the defense more time to review it — though details remain tightly sealed. Prosecutors allege Al-Marimi acted on orders from Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, while his defense plans to introduce new witnesses and expert testimony to counter the fresh material. At 70, Al-Marimi faces life in prison if convicted. With a projected two-month trial ahead, this decades-old case is poised to reignite global attention as justice slowly moves forward.
