Megrahi's verdict is a spectacular miscarriage of Scottish Justice!
ReplyDeleteThe Mebo investigation disclose: Not Mr. Abdelbaset Al Megrahi was the Libyan buyer of clothes by Tony Gauci (Boutique Mary's House) at Malta on 7 December, but after indications, on 23 November 1988, 18:45 clock, the Libyan secret service defector for the CIA, Abdul Magjid Giaka was the buyer!
Why police officer Harry Bell had not show the photo-portrait (Q13 of Giaka) to Gauci ? Was Gauci paid for this dirty thing ?
(see photo Q13, on Gauci/Malta-report)on UR: www.lockerbie.ch
Magjid Giaka alias "Puzzlepiece", was not a "Shirrker" and a "Liar" as the FBI tries to put him today, it was according to the CIA cables and other indications, the central man at Malta, in the conspiracy against Libya and its orders stand still under national security!
After the PanAm 103 tragedy, it is disclosed in one of the classified cables, Giaka was under pressure from his customer to get additional indication of events against Abdelbaset al Megrahi and Lamin Khalifah Fhimah, inside the Libyan Arab Airlines station at Luqa Airport, before 21 December 1988.
A product of it were Fhimah' s notes in its note book:
The diary of Lameen Fhima - MEBO: what does it really say ?
Discussions have been made as to the diary of Lameen Khalifa Fhima, that FBI "pointed found" at the premises of Fhima´s travel company in Malta.
Below is a copy of Fhima´s diary entry, dated december 1988. The Crown alleges that this entry shows how Fhima reminded himself of getting Air Malta tags on the same day as Abdelbaset Megrahi arrived from Zurich.
In the US indictment No. 91-0645, page 11, the Americans wrote:
"On or about December 15, 1988, Lamen Fhima made the following entries in his diary:
"Abdelbaset is coming from Zurich with Salvu....and "take taggs (sic) from Air Malta." On or about December 15, 1988, Lamen Fhima made an additional entry in the "Notes" section of his diary: "bring the tags from the airport (Abdelbaset Abdul Salam". ok.
But as it turned out, the American prosecution took the entries out from their original context!
What do the diary entries really say ? This is the Arabic translation.
A copy of the diary entry from Fhimas diary (appendix no. 58) - all labels (text no.) are brought together by a bowed line in the end of their message, made by Fhima
Text no. 1: 8. 30 in the morning with the owner of the shop Valetta - OK
Text no. 2: Abdelbaset coming from Zurich
Text no. 3: With Salvu (or Salva)
1) Postbox
2) Half of aluminium price
3) Priority after 4 years (sellor rent)
Text no. 4: X (cross) take TAGGS from Air Malta - OK
Nothing at all in this entry has anything to do with Pan Am 103, as alleged by the prosecution. The tags from Air Malta were taken by Fhima in order to provide the shopowner in Valetta with some specimen for a production of new tags. Fhima planned to print his own tags for the travel company. It happened that on this day Megrahi was arriving, and Fhima made a note about it, in order to know what flight Megrahi was arriving on. Later Fhima reminded himself to check on a business friend, named Salvu.
Giaka had get also the order on 6 November 1988 for the clothes purchase, on 23 November 1988. This meeting was held in safe house at Malta. Another meeting was at 5 December, before Abdelbaset al Megrahi arrived on 7 December in Malta and a meeting was on 20 December 1988, the day before the Lockerbie -tragedy!
Before was published the US /UK Indictment against the Libyan official Fhimah and Megrahi, on 14/15 November 1991, a further determining US meeting with Giaka took place. On 14th September 1991 Giaka left the Maltese shores unofficially by US boat and transferred to the USS Navy Vessel "Butte" (T-AE 27), 27 miles away from Malta at 36.10'N 14.38'E. On the ship there were special agent Philip Reid, FBI official Harold Hendershot and Nicholas Hreiz, Arabic language interpreter and he enters the witness protection program as witness no. 684 with his wife already safely in London.
The official date given when Giaka joined the witness protection programme in the United States is the 3rd December 1992. From official records until October 1999 the US Justice Department spend US$ 324,000 in connection with Giaka, accommodation, travelling, etc. A code used on Giaka's form regarding the witness protection programme is "Puzzle Piece" WF 140440.
Giaka in his statement told the investigators that once in October, or in November or in December 1988 (not on 20/21th December), he saw Fhima and Megrahi with two others taking two luggage form the converter, and have not given the luggage to be inspected by the customs officials. One of them was a large Samsonite, hard-sided suitcase. Giaka says it was unusal for Fhimah to take luggage without being inspected by customs officials...
