The CIA and Flight 103 Lockerbie Bombing 3

Feb 2006 PRESSURE is mounting on the Scottish Executive to hold a full inquiry into the case of Shirley McKie, the former detective accused of leaving her fingerprint at a murder scene.
The calls came as claims emerged that FBI agents had intervened in the case to urge a cover-up amid fears it could scupper the trial of the Lockerbie bombers.

Scots Tory leader Annabel Goldie, who last week urged a public inquiry, said a judicial inquiry, with the power to compel witnesses, was the only way to allay public concerns.

She said: "Serious question marks have now been placed over the Scottish criminal justice system, with a consequent shadow being cast over the role of government in Scotland.

"These doubts and the intensifying unease in the public mind have to be addressed . . . and, to dispel doubts about the role of ministers, a judicial inquiry has to be launched."

On Friday, Colin Boyd QC, the lord advocate, defended the Crown's decisions in the case involving Ms McKie, whose fingerprint was wrongly said to have been found at the murder scene of a Kilmarnock woman in 1997.

The Scottish Executive has already agreed to pay the ex-Strathclyde detective an out-of-court settlement of GBP750,000.

Now David Grieve, the senior fingerprint expert at Illinois State Police who helped clear Ms McKie in 1999, said FBI agents had asked him to keep silent before the Lockerbie trial began in the Hague in February 2000.

Mr Grieve said : "I was asked not to mention anything about the case and not to publicise it because we had to think about the higher goal, which was Lockerbie."

Meanwhile, Allan Bayle, a fingerprint expert formerly of the Metropolitan Police, has said it was his "firm belief" the SCRO's evidence was "far more likely to be fabrication rather than gross incompetence".
