** FILE ** Debris lies in a deep gash through the town of Lockerbie, Scotland, caused by the crash of PanAm flight 103, in this Dec. 22, 1988 file photo. According to British media reports, Thursday Aug. 13, 2009, Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi is to be freed from prison on compassionate grounds, but Scotland's government denied any such decision had been made. Officials dismissed the reports as speculation, and said Scotland's justice minister had yet to review all case information before deciding whether al-Megrahi should be released from a Scottish prison.
