Megrahi in 'good condition' for cancer patient, says report
[The Nation (Nairobi)] A Libyan official said convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali al Megrahi was "in good condition" for a cancer patient but depressed by reports he should have died by now, an Arab daily reported on Saturday.
| Wait til he finds out that we at Rantburg think he should have bought the needle years ago. Maybe he'll be so depressed he'll off himself ... |
Megrahi was thought to have had only three months to live when Scotland's incompetent devolved government released him to Libya in exchange for an oil deal on compassionate grounds a year ago, in a move which has incensed victims' families and stirred pro forma US criticism.
| Bambi didn't really object, he went through the motions ... |
The senior official said Megrahi was "in good condition considering his situation as a cancer patient," the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper reported.
But Megrahi, who has secluded himself in a Tripoli villa and only emerges to undergo hospital treatment for his prostate cancer, is "experiencing a very hard mental condition," said the unnamed official.
