    REPORT ON IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES: Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi v. H.M. Advocate 1. My name is Steven E. Clark, and I am a Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Riverside, where I conduct research and teach undergraduate and graduate- level courses on the psychology of eyewitness identification. I have attached a copy of my curriculum vita. 2. I have been retained by Tony Kelly, counsel for Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi, in the case of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi v. H.M. Advocate, to review the statements and the eyewitness identification of Tony Gauci and to prepare this report to be attached to Mr. Megrahi’s appeal of his conviction for the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, 21st December 1988. 3. The preparation of this report and the opinions expressed have three main sources of foundation: 1. my education, and experience; 2. my review of witness statements, photographs, and other documents relevant to the eyewitness evidence, and 3. the scientific literature and research on eyewitness identification. These three foundational sources are further described below. I first describe my education and experience, then list and describe materials from the case which I have reviewed in preparation of this report. In the third section I describe the body of research in the area of eyewitness identification, and apply that literature to the Lockerbie case. EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE 4. I have a B.S. degree in Psychology from Illinois State University (1981) and a PhD in Psychology from Indiana University (1988). Copies of my curriculum vita and relevant publications are attached.

  • C 2018 Haoruo Peng UNDERSTANDING STORIES VIA EVENT SEQUENCE MODELING
    c 2018 Haoruo Peng UNDERSTANDING STORIES VIA EVENT SEQUENCE MODELING BY HAORUO PENG DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Dan Roth, Chair Professor Julia Hockenmaier Professor Jian Peng Professor Kevin Gimpel, Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago ABSTRACT Understanding stories, i.e. sequences of events, is a crucial yet challenging natural language understanding (NLU) problem, which requires dealing with multiple aspects of semantics, including actions, entities and emotions, as well as background knowledge. In this thesis, towards the goal of building a NLU system that can model what has happened in stories and predict what would happen in the future, we contribute on three fronts: First, we investigate the optimal way to model events in text; Second, we study how we can model a sequence of events with the balance of generality and specificity; Third, we improve event sequence modeling by joint modeling of semantic information and incorporating background knowledge. Each of the above three research problems poses both conceptual and computational challenges. For event extraction, we find that Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) signals can be served as good intermediate representations for events, thus giving us the ability to reliably identify events with minimal supervision. In addition, since it is important to resolve co- referred entities for extracted events, we make improvements to an existing co-reference resolution system. To model event sequences, we start from studying within document event co-reference (the simplest flow of events); and then extend to model two other more natural event sequences along with discourse phenomena while abstracting over the specific mentions of predicates and entities.

  • A Lockerbie Trial Brief: the Tale of a Defector | the Washington Institute
    MENU Policy Analysis / PolicyWatch 494 A Lockerbie Trial Brief: The Tale of a Defector by Ray Takeyh Oct 13, 2000 ABOUT THE AUTHORS Ray Takeyh Ray Takeyh is a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. Brief Analysis he Lockerbie trial restarts on Tuesday, October 17, after a three-week recess. This recess was requested by the T prosecution, who in a puzzling move, asked for time to investigate new evidence of "considerable sensitivity." Prior to the adjournment, the prosecution had introduced its star witness, a double agent with first-hand knowledge of Libyan intelligence operations. Abdul Majid Giaka was to complement the prosecution's circumstantial case by actually connecting the two suspects to the bombing. Suspense at Camp Zeist Abdul Majid Giaka was an active member of the elite Revolutionary Committees and a leader in Libya's student movement. The Revolutionary Committees are the main source of power in Libya as they are responsible for mobilizing the masses, purging the society of anti-revolutionary forces and serving as a nation-wide intelligence collection network. Since their conception in the late 1970s, the Committees have been established at all levels of society and report directly to Libyan leader Mu'ammar Qaddafi. As an ideologically reliable member of Qaddafi's political society, Giaka was chosen to join the Libyan Security Services (JSO) in 1984. In 1986, he was dispatched to Malta where he operated under the cover of assistant station manager of Libyan Arab Airlines (LAA). Giaka had the misfortune of being sent to Europe at a time when Qaddafi launched his "stray dogs" campaign that sought to systematically assassinate Libya's dissidents abroad.

  • Icon” Started Acting As a Mediator in the Lockerbie Case Even Before Becoming President of South Africa
    INTERNATIONAL AVIATION TERRORISM. THE LOCKERBIE AFFAIR BETWEEN LAW AND POLITICS. Maria Rosaria Brizi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Arts, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations. Johannesburg, 2006. Abstract On 21 December 1988 a civil airliner, Pan Am 103, blew apart over the town of Lockerbie, Scotland. This was a major terrorist attack against civil aviation, which shocked billions of people and gained worldwide media attention. This thesis examines the Lockerbie case in its political and legal dimension as a heinous and spectacular example of international aviation terrorism. First, it discusses the very idea of terrorism and the inherent definitional problems. Then, it focuses on the disaster and its aftermath. The thesis approaches the numerous issues this complex case raised as years went by. In particular, it portrays the long-standing diplomatic and political wrangle between the United Kingdom and the United States on one side and Libya on the other side. The International Court of Justice and the United Nations Security Council were both involved in this case. The thesis tries to depict the inextricable link between law and politics within the United Nations framework and the difficult balance the judicial and the political powers need striking for a correct and fruitful functioning of the whole system. The Lockerbie case turned out to be a testing-gown for the inherent consistency of the United Nations set-up. Extradition of the alleged perpetrators of the bombing was the issue at stake. For the first time ever, the Security Council imposed sanctions on a sovereign state in order to secure to justice the alleged perpetrators of a terrorist attack.

Introduction [1] The history of this case is well known. It was most recently set out in an opinion of the court dated 26 August 2020 ([2020] HCJAC 39, at para [8]), quoting from an earlier 2 statement of reasons relative to procedural matters. In summary, on 31 January 2001, after a trial in the High Court of Justiciary sitting in the Netherlands between 3 May 2000 and 18 January 2001, Mr Megrahi was convicted of the murders of 270 people by the deliberate introduction of an explosive device onto a civilian aircraft (PA 103) which was flying from London Heathrow to New York. The plane disintegrated over Lockerbie at about 7.00pm on 21 December 1988. The trial was conducted without a jury by a bench of three judges. They produced a written opinion (HM Advocate v Megrahi 2001 GWD 5-177; https://www.scotcourts.gov.uk/docs/default-source/sc--- lockerbie/lockerbiejudgement.pdf?sfvrsn=2), which set out their reasoning.

Giaka defected to the CIA in August 1988, four months by Jeffrey Steinberg before the bombing.

Giaka, on the U.S. government Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, the case against two payroll for three years, was by then believed by his CIA and Libyan intelligence officers is apparently coming unglued.
