“Controversial report from Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC) remained secret for five years because no-one had permission to publish it. The Sunday Herald and its sister paper, The Herald, are the only newspapers in the world to have seen the report.
We choose to publish it because we have the permission of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi, the Libyan convicted of the bombing, and because we believe it is in the public interest to disseminate the whole document to allow the public to see for themselves the analysis of the evidence which could have resulted in the acquittal of Megrahi. Under Section 32 of the Data Protection Act, journalists can publish in the public interest.
We have made very few redactions to protect the names of confidential sources and private information." http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/home-news/lockerbie-exclusive-we-publish-the-report-that-could-have-cleared-megrahi.2012036248 link to the report in full http://login.heraldscotland.com/SCCRC-Statement-of-Reasons-red.pdf
