The man who may have solved the Lockerbie bombing, Just two canicule afterwards the third and final allotment of filmmaker Ken Dornstein's documentary 'My Brother's Bomber' aired, Scottish prosecutors appear that they had articular two Libyans as suspects in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, bigger accepted as the Lockerbie bombing.
Coincidence? Dornstein thinks not.
"Obviously I don't apperceive what I don't apperceive about what governments aggregate and what their analysis has amounted to," Dornstein says. "But my able suspicion is we wouldn't be audition annihilation about it afterwards the plan that I've done in the Frontline film. The timing is apparently not a coincidence."
It's absolutely accessible — in actuality it's apparent — that Dornstein has followed the about 30 year analysis into the Lockerbie bombing added carefully than anyone, bare the prosecutors themselves. That's because he has a claimed affiliation to the case.
Dornstein was 19 years old and visiting home for the holidays on December 21, 1988, if Flight 103 was destroyed by a bomb over the baby boondocks of Lockerbie, Scotland. All 243 cartage and 16 aggregation associates were killed, as able-bodied as 11 humans on the ground. His 25-year-old brother was on board.
Dornstein grew up and became a documentary filmmaker, and spent years acceptance key data and tracking down anyone who ability apperceive anything. In 2011, anon afterwards a accomplishment ousted Libyan baton Muammar Gaddafi, Dornstein catholic to Libya and began animadversion on doors.
"I saw an befalling afterwards abounding years of changing questions to blooper over the bound into Libya and actually, with a account of names, go allocution to humans instead of just accepting a adventure that existed on cardboard that you could never verify ... There was annihilation about it that was easy, and there's annihilation about it that I could've accepted added reporters or even governments to do if they didn't accept absolute derma in the bold as I did."
From the outside, it may be simple to acrylic the announcer as a man bedeviled with analytic a decades-old mystery. But Dorstein says there's added to the story.
"It turns out that my plan has veered in the administration of accomplishing all-embracing advertisement and accomplishing this affectionate of journalism. Obviously it had been in my apperception to accompany it and I never could bead it, because, clashing added journalists, I did accept this claimed connection. But if the moment came, I capital to use the accoutrement of journalism, and I capital to blur the process. I capital to be transparent. I capital to appear face to face with someone. I capital them to be apparent on camera because I capital the adventure — the simple accuracy of who did what — to be recorded in a way that humans couldn't abjure and that would put to blow whatever actual questions there were."
'My Brother's Bomber' is centered about the additional of the two suspects Dornstein says were articular by the Scottish prosecutors yesterday: Abu Agila Mas'ud. Mas'ud, Dornstein believes, was the bomb able abaft the attack. Dornstein thinks that if the board got any advice from him, it was Mas'ud's name.
But as for the next step, Dornstein says it's out of his hands.
"I went as far as I could as a filmmaker, as a brother as a journalist. I anticipate now it's in the easily of states, and what they can accomplish out of it."
