BBC 23 September, 2003: "The Lockerbie bomber has lodged a fresh appeal against his conviction for the murder of 270 people in the 1988 atrocity. The Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission has been asked to investigate the case of Abdelbaset Al Megrahi, who was jailed for the bombing in 2001."

Apparently Dumfries and Galloway Police are paying for the storage of the key part of the fuselage (around the site of the explosion) at AAIB and the unreconstructed wreckage at a "secure scrapyard in Lincolnshire" (wot - 'beware of the dog").

I'm told the reconstructed part was still in-situ at AAIB this summer.
