Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Al Megrahi's lawyer has denied reports that he has died.
Sky News quoted sources this afternoon who cited reports claiming the man convicted of Scotland's worst atrocity, the bombing Pan Am flight 103 in 1988, had passed away.
But his lawyers in Scotland quickly refuted the reports. 'It's absolutely untrue,' lawyer Tony Kelly said when asked for confirmation. 'He's definitely not dead.'
