The "Lockerbie/PanAm 103" affair must be investigated by the 'International Criminal Court' (ICC) for deliberate, falsified evidence!
About the Court in The Hague, Netherlands
The International Criminal Court (ICC) investigates, among other things, the most serious crimes of which the international community is accused and, where appropriate, brings them to justice.
Crimes against humanity and the crime of aggression. Its legal basis is the multilateral Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court of July 17, 1998.

The search for evidence of the perpetrators of the attack on "PanAm103" over Lockerbie on 21 December 1988 is still ongoing!
In the second case - the Scottish "Lockerbie affair PanAm103" - the search is also on for the real perpetrators!
Edwin Bollier and my wife Mahnaz, owners of MEBO Ltd, have taken note of the false outcome of the Police Scotland investigation.
The Police Appeals Unit wrote on 5 July 2023 that the investigation failed to produce evidence to support any of the 10 allegations made by Police Scotland.
Therefore, on 25 September 2023, Bollier & MEBO Ltd requested an investigation by the Pollice Investigators and Review Commissioner (PIRC). In our opinion, the conclusions of 5 July 2023 are wrong from A to Z and the investigation into Operation Sandwood was negligent.
1) In the first case, only a threat by Ruhollah Khomeini - the then leader of Iran - remains as evidence.
Iran Air Flight 655 (IR655) was a scheduled Iran Air flight from Tehran via Bandar Abbas to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
On 3 July 1988, this route was flown by an Airbus. The aircraft was shot down on the second leg of the flight over the Persian Gulf near Qeshm by the crew of the US warship USS Vincennes (CG-49), killing all 290 people on board.
This is the deadliest plane crash in Iran and among the 10 most serious accidents in civil aviation! After the crash of "Iran Air 655" on 3 July 1988, Ruhollah Khomeini threatened revenge.
In the official investigation the first target was therefore IRAN, but already in January 1990 the target was shifted to LIBYA. Two years later, on 14/15 November 1991, an official indictment from Scotland/UK and the USA accused LIBYA of having perpetrated the attack on "PanAm103".
After controlled delays and several apeals, a Scottish court found Abtelbaset Al Megrahi and LIBYA only after 30 years devinitely guilty!
A new trial of Abu Ajila Mohammad Mas'ud Kheir Al-Marimi is due to begin in the USA on 15 December 2023. He is accused of being involved in the "PanAm103" case, which Mas'ud Kheir Al-Marimi has denied until today.
2) Second case, the "Lockerbie/PanAm103 affair".
The two decisive pieces of evidence for the judicial conviction of LIBYA and Al Megrahi were made possible with a "charred" sample fragment (PT/35) which was processed by hand and showed the trace to LIBYA, and secondly with a green duplicate fragment (not "charred") which was also marked with (PT/35)!
The second green fragment - not charred - was given to the FBI lab and misused for a positive forensic comparison with an MST-13 timer (K'1) delivered to LIBYA! It is unclear who built the sample (PT/35). Ing.Ulrich Lumpert confirmed shortly before his death that FBI expert Tom Thurman visited him in Zurich before the end of 1989 and that during the visit he (Lumpert) scratched the visible 3 scratch marks and a letter (M) on the charred fragment (PT/35). The letter «M» could stand for «Muster (sample) or «Mebo».
The FBI expert Tom Thurman and the Scottish expert Allen Feraday claimed to have been in contact with me, Edwin Bollier, which is not true. I never saw the two experts, they only had contact with Ulrich Lumpert. Even during the court hearings in Zurich, the experts were apparently in an adjoining room... Why did they have to lie and hide?
Someone must have hidden the fragment in a "SLALOM shirt" before the RARDE experts Dr Thomas Hayes and Allen Feraday discovered the charred fragment (PT/35) on 15 January 1990?
The fateful evidence in the "Lockerbie/PanAm103" case turns out in retrospect to be falsification of evidence and lying under oath!
Edwin Bollier, owner of MEBO Ltd. confirms the fragments allegedly found in Lockerbie and described by RARDE experts Dr. Thomas Hayes and Allen Feraday as coming from a Toshiba "RTSF-16" radio recorder and an MST-13 timer (PT-35) allegedly found on 12 May 1989! (true discovery date was
15.January 1990.
These fragments are not "debris" from the crashed aircraft "PanAm103", but were obviously broken out of unpopulated circuit boards by hand and with the help of pliers! Fragments that were knocked out by an explosion would show a different side view than pieces that were broken out by hand!
Symbolicly the difference is comparable to a comparison between an analogue sine tone and a digital tone.
Since the circuit board has to be bent in a piece that has been broken out by hand, the side walls show as "warped" and slightly broken off on the surface.
This fact affects, among others, the published fragments of the Toshiba "RTSF-16" radio circuit board: (AG/145) - (02=PT/30) - (*L106/101) > (*shown on a finger); and the crucial part of an MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35), all broken out by hand. (Forgery of evidence)!
The sidewalls of the fragments shown would look different - as if cut vertically with a knife - if the fragments had been knocked out by an explosion on PanAm103!
All fragments could be examined by a neutral and wellknown forensic institute. Best choice would be the "Fraunhofer Institute for Technology" in Munich.
The evidence swindle was additionally supported with a prepared, faked additional page No.51, in RARDE report 181, by Dr.Hayes as well as an overwritten police sticker No.168 - PI'995!
The correct find date, 15 January 1990, was moved to 12 May 1989 on the fake page No.51 and the fragment (PT/35) was described not as a grey charred fragment but as a "green coloured circuit board".
These representations and affidavits of the witness Dr Hayes were accepted by the judges of the court in Zeist in 2001.
The crucial MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35) was not seen by anyone before its discovery in January 1990 (see court extract):
-----
Dr Hayes:
A: Yes
Q: You didn't see it?
A: Yes, I have. Yes.
Q: So this fragment, as far as the police were concerned, could not come to light until it was taken out of the fabric by you...?
A: That is correct. Yes.
Q: So it follows that it could not be seen by the police and the item was taken by you from the enclosed area of the fabric?
A: I am sure that is the case.
------
It should thus be clear that police sticker No. 168 - PI'995 could only be overwritten ("DEBRIS charred") after the discovery of the enclosed fragments from the "slalom shirt" in January 1990; before the caption ("cloth charred") was written!
In the Lockerbie trial 2000/01, none of the signing 5 witnesses (on label no. 168 / PI'995) could explain why the word "cloth" was headed "DEBRIS"...
This is the reason why the court had waved through the "mysterious environment" with police label No.168/PI'995 as OK! Doc: 50112406.rtf 10 September 1990 >Siemens Company. The sentence "mysterious environment" you can find in the court protocols.
After the publication of the confidential FBI investigation report No. 262-23 of 22 August 1990 on the forensic comparison between the fragment (PT35) and the Togo time fuse (K-1) it became clear that they had not compared the original black charred MST-13 fragment but used a green duplicate fragment.
The original PT/35 fragment was then a two-part "patchwork" because it had been sawn in two at Siemens on 27 April 1990. The now green duplicate fragment (PT35) replaced the charred original, which was handed over by the Scottish police to the FBI laboratory for forensic comparison.
This falsely proved that the fragment (PT/35) came from an MST-13 timer board supplied to LIBYA.
Only by this "dodge" LIBYA and Abdelbast Al Megrahi could be accused of being responsible for the murder of PanAm 103!!!! responsible for the murder of PanAm 103.
The result would have been completely different if the "original PT35 fragment" had been compared, and without the possibility of blaming Libya.
PS: To date, there is no evidence that an IED bomb was transported from Malta to Frankfurt by Air Malta (KM-180) on 21 December 1988.
For lack of evidence, the Libyan defendant Fhimah Lamin Khalifa was acquitted by the judges.

The fateful evidence in the legal matter "Lockerbie/PanAm103" turns out after the fact to be a fraud of evidence and a lie under oath!
Edwin Bollier, owner of the company MEBO Ltd. verifies the fragment parts allegedly found and described in Lockerbie by the RARDE experts Dr. Thomas Hayes and Allen Feraday as originating from a Toshiba radio recorder "RTSF-16" and an MST-13 timer (PT-35) allegedly found on 12 May 1989!
These fragments are not "debris" from the crashed aircraft "PanAm103", but were obviously broken out of unpopulated printed circuit boards by hand and with the help of pliers! Fragments that were knocke out by an explosion show a different side view than pieces that were broken out by hand!
The difference is similar to a comparison between an analogue sinus sound and a digital sound.
Because the circuit board has to be bent in the case of a manually broken out part, the side walls show up as "spanted" lashed and slightly superficially broken off.
This fact concerns, among others, the published fragments of the Toshiba Radio Record "RTSF-16": (AG/145) - (02=PT/30) - (*L106/101) > (*shown on one finger); as well as the crucial part of a MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35), all of which were broken out by hand. (Evidence fraud)!
The side walls of the presented fragments would look different - as if cut off vertically, orthogonally, by a knife - if the fragments had been knocked out by an explosion on PanAm103!
All fragments should be examined by a neutral 'Fraunhofer Institute of Technology', in Munich.
The evidence fraud was additionally supported with a prepared, faked additional page No.51, in RARDE-Report 181, by Dr.Hayes as well as an overwritten police label No.168 - PI'995!
The correct date ofdiscovery, 15 January 1990, was changed back to 12 May 1989 on the fake page No.51 and the Fragment (PT/35) was not described as a grey charred fragment but as a "green coloured circuit board".
These representations and statements under oath by witness Dr Hayes were accepted by the judges at the Zeist court in 2001.
The crucial MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35) was not seen by anyone before its discovery in January 1990 (see court extract):
-----
Dr. Hayes:
A: Yes
Q: didn't you?
A: Yes, I did. Yes.
Q: So this fragment presumably could not have come to light as far as the police were concerned before it was taken out of the fabric... by yourself?
A: That is correct. Yes.
Q: It follows that it could not have been seen by the police and the article was extracted by you from the enclosed area of the material?
A: I am sure that is the case.
------
Thus it should be clear that the police label No.168 - PI'995 could only be overwritten as ("DEBRIS charred") after the discovery of the enclosed fragments from the "Slalom Shirt", in January 1990; before the overwrite ("cloth charred") was written!
At the Lockerbie trial in 2000/01, none of the signing 5 witnesses (on label no.168 / PI'995) could explain why the word "cloth" was overwritten with "DEBRIS"...
This is the reason why the court had waved through the "mysterious environment" with police label no.168/PI'995 as OK!

This falsely proved that the fragment (PT/35) came from an MST-13 timer shipped to LIBYEN.
Only through this "dodge" could LIBYEN and Abdelbast Al Megrahi, be accused of being responsible for the assassination of PanAm 103!!!!
The result would have been completely different if they had compared the "original PT35 fragment", and without a possibility of indicting Libya.
Until today, there is no proof that an IED Bomb was transported from Malta to Frankfurt by Air Malta (KM-180) on 21 December 1988.

Please GOD support our 33 years of work in clearing up the Scottish evidence fraud in case "Lockerbie - PanAm 103". I Edwin Bollier and my wife Mahnaz, owners of the company MEBO Ltd, have taken note of the false result of the Police Scotland investigation.
The Police Appeals Department wrote on 5 July, 2023 that the investigation found no evidence to support any of the 10 allegations made by Police Scotland.
Therefore, Bollier & MEBO Ltd, has today decided to request a review of the matter by the Pollice Investigators and Review Commissioner (PIRC). In our opinion, the conclusions of 5 July 2023, are incorrect from A-Z and the Operation Sandwood investigation was negligently handled.

This crucial "devilish" page 51, in RARDE Report 181 - prepared by expert Dr Thomas Hayes - is responsible for LIBYA and Abdelbaset being implicated in the bombing of flight PanAm103, over Lockerbie.
(Translated from German to English with 'DeepL'
(Translated from German to English with 'DeepL'
Ex RARDE expert Dr. Thomas Hayes "fabricated" the crucial, falsified and "devilish" page No.51, in the official RARDE Report 181 - and is thus co-responsible for the Scotish indictment in the case "Lockerbie -PanAm 103" (270 victim) - and for the conviction against LIBYA and the official Mr Abdelbaset Al Megrahi!
After the indictment against LIBYA and its official Fhimah, Lamin Khalifa and Abdelbaset Al Megrahi, on 14/15 November 1991, for the bombing of flight PanAm103 over Lockerbie be responsible, it was decided years later, delays a.o. UN-Embago, etc., to hold a trial under Scottish justice, in Zeist / Holland.
For these preparations, Dr. Hayes, two and a half years after his dismissal from RARDE, was called back to RARDE to sign RARDE Report 181, which ended approx in 1991....
If a legally educated person believes that Dr. Hayes was called back to RARDE two and a half years after his dismissal only because of the signature of RARDE Report 181, he should at least include the "logical fact" that Report 181 was read through before Dr. Hayes signed it and at that time obviously smuggled the forged additional page 51 into Report 181 and overwrote the existing original page No. 51 with No. 52!

New revelation in the criminal "Lockerbie affair/PanAm103"
Translated from German into English by DeepL.
Translated from German into English by DeepL.
OFFICIAL > Chief Superintendent of the 'Supreme Supervisory Authority' > Catriona Henderson, supports the questionable investigations of "Operation SANDWOOD" and thus becomes partly responsible for the claims, by expert Thomas Dr. Hayes - that a fragment of a timer, later referred to as (PT35/b) and together with various other fragments of material, including paper and plastic fragments, all embedded in the material of production PI995, in a "slalom" shirt - was discovered by Dr, Hayes, on May 12, 1989, and photographed by the photographer at RARDE, on May 22, 1989; which cannot possibly be true! Lies under oath!
Chief Superintendent Catriona Henderson should know that ID William Williamson (Police Scotland) said that Allen Feraday had sent a fax, to Chief Superintendent Stuart Henderson, in January 1990, about items he found blasted in addition to pieces of black plastic. some wire and a piece of the instruction manual for the RT-SF16 radio were discovered.
The most significant item was a fingernail size circuit board, "green in colour", whit solder for a circuit on one side only. This circuit board became known as (PT-35), the evidence designation placed on it by the Scots.
Lie > testified under oath, in the trial (2000) by witness 586,
Dr. Thomas Hayes: among other things, he had discovered a "green coloured" MST13 timer fragment (PT35) for the first time, on 12 May 1989, in a "slalom shirt;
(Refers to the wrong, manipulated page No.51, in the RARDE -Report 181).
The reupon the question of LORD SUTERLAND, to the witness Dr. Hayes:
Q - It would follow that it could not have been seen by the police prior to the cloth being passed to you at RARDE and the article being extracted by you from the trapped area of material?
A - I'm sure that is the case.
Q - So you can cast no light, however, despite that backround, on the second paragraph of this memo?
A - I'm sorry, I can't . No.
Q - Very well. Is not the case.
stay tuned, it will be fascinating...

Today - in memory of the 290 victims of Iran Air 655 - July 3 1988. Iran Air Flight 655 was an Iran Air flight from Bandar Abbas, Iran to Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
On 3 July 1988, at the end of the Iran–Iraq War, the aircraft serving the flight, an Airbus A300B2-203, was shot down by U.S. missiles fired by the United States Navy guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes as it flew over the Strait of Hormuz.
The aircraft, which had been flying in Iranian airspace over Iran’s territorial waters in the Persian Gulf on its usual flight path, was destroyed. All 290 onboard, including 66 children and 16 crew, perished.

LOCKERBIE AFFAIR - THE MAKING OF THE LOCKERBIE SCANDAL
All evidence (soft and hardware) in the «Lockerbie/PanAm103» case, on which the Scottish court judgment of 31st January 2001, against Libyan official Abdelbaset Al Megrahi and Libya, is based, on false, deliberately made claims and manipulated facts!
Below, the crucial, lying evidence is debunked by real counter-evidence from «MEBO».
The crucial false evidence of 10 evidence claims, against Libya and Abdelbaset Al Megrahi:
According to the court verdict, on 12th May 1989, sworn witness No.586, expert Dr Thomas Hayes, and witness No.355, Allen Feiraday, testified - to have discovered in the laboratory of (RARDE) a fragment of an MST-13 timer, later referred to as (PT35) - in a shirt. The fragment finding (PT35) was captured in a photograph taken on the same day.
The evidence photo shows a dark charred fragment (PT35) with a clearly visible scratched letter «M» (for Muster = Pattern) and three scratch marks.
Obviously, for a deliberately planned evidence fraud - in RARDE Report No. 181, through a manipulated page No.51 - the discovered MST-13 timer fragment (PT35) was wrongly called a «green colored» fragment"!
Only by this color change to a «green colored» fragment could Police Scotland, in June 1990, positively compare with a «green colored» duplicate fragment (PT35/b), in the FBI laboratory in Washington, by comparison with a real «green-colored» MST13 Timer (K'1) delivered to Libya. The conclusion was therefore false, because they did not compare the MST-13 fragment as found at the crime scene. The result would have been completely different!
Although the judges and the defense at the Lockerbie Court in Camp van Zeist (The Netherlands) knew, among other things, that the real dark charred MST-13 timer fragment (PT35) was first available from 10-22 January 1990, the false evidence statements and among others, the criminal reversal of the date from 22nd January 1990 to 12th May 1989 were legally accepted by the officials Dr. Thomas Hayes and Allen Feraday (RARDE)!
At the Lockerbie Court in Zeist, it could therefore be wrongly decided that the fragment (PT35/b) originates from a "green-coloured" MST-13 timer delivered to Libya!

UN investigations can add value, e.g. if there had been no credible national investigations by competent authorities...
Prologue > Open orientation to Ambassador Pascale Baeriswyl, Head of the Permanent Mission of Switzerland to the United Nations in New York, and to Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis, for an INITIATIVE BY THE SWISS UN PRESIDENCY OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL TO INVESTIGATE LOCKERBIE AFFAIRS / PAN AM 103.
..
Swiss citizen Edwin Bollier and owner of the Swiss company MEBO AG expects that the current Swiss presidency of the security council has the opportunity to establish an investigation committee to bring light to ongoing Lockerbie affair around the bombing of PanAm 103.
Fakt, since 01 May 2023, Switzerland has been chairing the UN Security Council. On 09th May, a meeting took place with Libya's representative to the United Nations, Al-Taher Al-Sonni, in New York with Swiss Ambassador to the United Nations, Pascale Baeriswyl, and discussed the latest developments in the "delicate situation" in Libya.
Remember: The sanctions against Libya by the UN had been lifted after the conviction of a Libyan official. (Abelbasset al-Megrahi). After the Lockerbie trial in Zeist (The Netherlands), new crucial evidence occurred. That the judges at the Court have been deceived by false evidence and false testimonials of experts and officials. For instance, the irregularities around the MST-13 fragment have been willingly ignored.
UN observer Professor Hans Köchler wrote in his report that the Lockerbie process was inconsistent, irrational, and politically motivated! Appeals by the Megrahi family ended after years of legal wrangling without restoring their family honor. The controversial and wrong verdict was not corrected and remains valid. After 35 years since the Lockerbie disaster it is time for the truth and to restore justice.
A "Criminal complaint - for financial compensation against Police Scotland; Lockerbie bombing PanAm103 (Operation Sandwood) was filed on 11th November 2020 by Edwin Bollier & MEBO Ltd - is still in progress to date according to the Professional Standards Department in Glasgow (Police Scotland).

It is a shame for Scotland that the Scottish Justice and Police Scandal - in the case of 'Lockerbie/PanAm103' – is still going on. It is time that efforts are made to restore justice. The truth must prevail.
On 11th November 2020, a Criminal complaint against Police Scotland; Lockerbie bombing PanAm 103 (Operation Sandwood) by Edwin Bollier/MEBO Ltd. Telecommunication, Zurich/Switzerland, was filed. Referring to a letter from Police Scotland, dated, 23/04/2021, the complaint is until today, still under assessment...
In addition, since 25th January 2023, Edwin Bollier & MEBO Ltd. have filed a "Claim for Damages" about; inter alia, fraudulent evidence in software and hardware, including false witness statements under oath!

The Lockerbie Case
A commentary on the case of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, convicted of the murder of 270 people in the Pan Am 103 disaster.

Camp Zeist should stand as a warning for our justice system
[This is the headline over an article by me published in today's edition of The Herald. It can be read here. What follows is an expanded version of the article:]
The Scottish Government is promoting legislation that will permit rape cases to be tried, on a trial basis, without a jury. The only recent instance in which judges of the High Court of Justiciary have presided over a trial on indictment without a jury is the Lockerbie case.
The conviction of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi in that trial in 2001 has been widely criticised. The late Ian Hamilton KC opined, with only slight exaggeration, "I don't think there's a lawyer in Scotland who now believes Mr Megrahi was justly convicted." I myself commented "that a shameful miscarriage of justice has been perpetrated and that the Scottish criminal justice system has been gravely sullied."
The official report by Professor Hans Köchler, a United Nations-appointed observer at the trial, contains the following:
"13. The Opinion of the Court is exclusively based on circumstantial evidence and on a series of highly problematic inferences. As to the undersigned's knowledge, there is not one single piece of material evidence linking the two accused to the crime. In such a context, the guilty verdict in regard to the first accused appears to be arbitrary, even irrational.
This impression is enforced when one considers that the actual wording of the larger part of the Opinion of the Court points more into the direction of a 'not proven' verdict.
The arbitrary aspect of the verdict is becoming even more obvious when one considers that the prosecution, at a rather late stage of the trial, decided to 'split' the accusation and to change the very essence of the indictment by renouncing the identification of the second accused as a member of Libyan intelligence so as to actually disengage him from the formerly alleged collusion with the first accused in the supposed perpetration of the crime. Some light is shed on this procedure by the otherwise totally incomprehensible 'not guilty' verdict in regard to the second accused.
"14. This leads the undersigned to the suspicion that political considerations may have been overriding a strictly judicial evaluation of the case and thus may have adversely affected the outcome of the trial. This may have a profound impact on the evaluation of the professional reputation and integrity of the panel of three Scottish judges.
Seen from the final outcome, a certain coordination of the strategies of the prosecution, of the defense, and of the judges' considerations during the later period of the trial is not totally unlikely. This, however, − when actually proven − would have a devastating effect on the whole legal process of the Scottish Court in the Netherlands and on the legal quality of its findings.
"15. In the above context, the undersigned has reached the general conclusion that the outcome of the trial may well have been determined by political considerations and may to a considerable extent have been the result of more or less openly exercised influence from the part of actors outside the judicial framework − facts which are not compatible with the basic principle of the division of powers and with the independence of the judiciary, and which put in jeopardy the very rule of law and the confidence citizens must have in the legitimacy of state power and the functioning of the state's organs − whether on the traditional national level or in the framework of international justice as it is gradually being established through the United Nations Organization.
"16. On the basis of the above observations and evaluation, the undersigned has − to his great dismay − reached the conclusion that the trial, seen in its entirety, was not fair and was not conducted in an objective manner. Indeed, there are many more questions and doubts at the end of the trial than there were at its beginning. The trial has effectively created more confusion than clarity and no rational observer can make any statement on the complex subject matter 'beyond any reasonable doubt.' Irrespective of this regrettable outcome, the search for the truth must continue. This is the requirement of the rule of law and the right of the victims' families and of the international public."
The Lockerbie trial resulted in a conviction. But it also gravely besmirched the reputation of the Scottish criminal justice system. The proposal to institute, on a trial basis, non-jury courts in rape cases may well achieve the apparently desired objective of increasing convictions in such cases. But at what cost to the administration of justice and the reputation of the Scottish criminal justice system? Let the Lockerbie case stand as a warning.

Edwin Bollier & MEBO's Prognosis:
A new US trial in the "Lockerbie/PanAm103" affair, starting on 25 January 2023, which will contribute to the truth having to be sought, by all appearances, in a different direction - outside Libya?
MEBO's revelation of the crucial evidence fraud involving an MST13 time-fuse fragment (PT35/b) and the "shake-up" of the questionable Scottish court ruling in the "Lockerbie/PanAm103 affair" - which became final only after rejected appeal of 14 July 2022 against Abdelbaset Al Megrahi and LIBYA - will hopefully shed light on the new trial in the US?
The trial is scheduled to begin on 25 January 2023 in Washington with a world-class US legal team?
