Daily Record: Free Bomber to Save Bulgaria's Nurses
Politics: 6 January 2007, Saturday.Five Bulgarian nurses condemned to death will only be spared if the Lockerbie bomber is freed, the Scottish Daily Record covers the latest stage of the prolonged drama in Libya.
Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi has been urged to spare the women, and a Palestinian doctor, who were found guilty of deliberately infecting children with HIV.
But he pledged their lives would only be saved if Lockerbie bomber Abel Baset Al-Megrahi was released from prison in Scotland.
Libyan Al-Megrahi was convicted in 2001 for the 1988 bombing of Pan-Am flight 103, which exploded over Lockerbie, killing 270.
Last night, the families of the nurses, who claim all five were tortured into confessing, were furious, the Daily Record comments.
Dr Zdravko Georgiev, whose wife Kristiana faces death, said: "It makes me sick. But no matter how wrong it is, I want my wife back."
