! LOCKERBIE - the biggest fraud in the history of Scotland !
Zurich, 2008 May 6
Edwin Bollier VR, MEBO Ltd
The "unfathomable mystery" of the timer fragment MST-13 (PT-35B) is covered up!
Witness Dr. Hayes could not explain at the trial in Kamp van Zeist why he had already on the 12th of May 1989 registered the fragment PT35B in his notebook/report 181 and did define his own irregular notes "as an unfathomable mystery"!
The photo illustration PI/995 together with the page no. 51 in Hayes’ "draft report" is a falsification and the date is rebooked, because on the 12th of May 1989 the MST-13 timer fragment (PT-35B) did not yet exist. It was „discovered“ and photographed for the first time on the 12th of September 1989 by RARDE...
Neither the Lord Advocate nor the Defece Team Duff & Taylor have questioned these mysterious statements of Dr. Hayes - a really gross negligence.
In advance: It was an elaborated script to incriminate Libya with the bombing of Pan Am 103. Obviously at least three western intelligence services were involved into a conspiracy against Libya ...
Similarities with the document "under national security" are purely "accidental".
Summary of MEBO's investigations
Given a general view, excluding all the complicated machinations around the MST-13 timers, the script of Libya's incrimination in the Lockerbie case can easily be explained:
MEBO Ltd developped in early 1985 timers with the type number MST-13 and fabricated therefore 3 handmade brown printed circuit (PC) platines (PC-boards). Two of them were built into two operational timers (prototyps) and sold to the GDR. The third brown PC-board was not functioning and Lumpert said that he had it broken and thrown away.
To understand the role of the MST-13 timer fragment for the incrimination of Libya one has to know that two different fragments with the same size had been used for the incrimination of Libya:
- The first allegedly found and fabricated MST-13 fragment was brown.
One brown MST-13 PC-board (not operational) was given by MEBO ex Engineer Ulrich Lumpert without owner Bollier's knowing on the 22th of June 1989 to an officer of the Swiss federal police (BUPO) investigating the Lockerbie-case.
From this PC-board the first allegedly found brown MST-13 fragment was fabricated.
- The second also fabricated MST-13 fragment was green.
After MEBO's questionning by the BUPO on the 23th of April 1990 it was known to the investigators and members of secret services that the allegedly found MST-13 fragment from Lockerbie was brown and that Libya had received green MST-timers between 1985-86.
For further incrimination of Libya now a green MST-13 timer was needed and fabricated. FBI forensic expert Thomas Thurmann was in possession o a least two green MST-timers confiscated in Senegal and Togo, or it had been fabricated in a special laboratory in the USA or Great Britain.
Fabrication of a brown timer fragment MST-13 used for the indiction of Libya
Around May 1989 at RARDE (Royal Armament Research and Development Establishment, United Kingdom) the picture no. PI 995 was taken and archived. The brown allegedly found MST-13 timer fragment was part of the police investigation in 1989. But this picture shows a brown MST-13 timer fragment not yet sawn into two pieces together with remnants of clothes allegedly found in Lockerbie. The photo PI 995 is the most important piece of evidence.
A digital magnification of the picture (PI 995) in MEBO's possession proves doubtlessly that the photograped MST-13 timer fragment:
1. did originate from a handmade brown non fuctioning MST-13 Timer printed circuit-board (PC-board).*(prototyp). Clearly a scratched off letter "M" is still visible. It was "fabricated" out of an empty brown MST-13 timer PC-board/prototyp) from ex Engineer Lumpert.
Ex Eng. Ulrich Lumpert wrote in his Affidavit:
I confirm today on 18th July 2007 that I stole the third handmanufactured MST-13 Timer PC-Board consisting of 8 layers of fiberglass from MEBO Ltd. and gave it without permission on 22th June 1989 to a *person officially investigating in the "Lockerbie-case"
*(officer of the Swiss federal police (BUPO)
The Swiss officer handed it over to Mr Alan Ferady from RARDE. In July 1989 Mr. Allen Feraday/RARDE and FBI forensic agent Thomas Thurman (and others) conducted explosion-tests in the USA, using TNT and Semtex H, airfreight-containers, Toshiba radio-recorders type RT 8016/SF16-Bombeat and Samsonite Silhouette 4000 suitcases (made in Denver, Colorado) filled with clothing, etc. (perhaps using the brown MST-13 PC-board from Lumpert) that were subjected to the explosion, with most such activities being photographically recorded:>>>
1.) by FBI Polaroidphotos; (liable for: Thomas Thurman)
2.) by photos from Stephan Haines, the RARDE photographer.
Notabene: For the Court and the Defence legal proceedings, all these photosgraphs (negatives) are still kept under security closure at Fort Halstead!
Where are the missing FBI Polaroid photos of the original "Lockerbie-MST-13 timer fragment" from the Swiss officer (BUPO) with my signature on the backside today?
Requests of Advocate Neupert to view theses photos had been blocked by the ownes of the photos, the FBI.
(see appendix 1)
With these photos, possibly from these explosive tests, the Swiss Federal Police (BUPO) visited MEBO on the 23th of April 1990. The police showed Mebo FBI Polaroidphotos with illustrations of a MST-13 timer-fragment, handfabricated from a prototyp (brown coloured, with the letter "M" on it). and not cut ino two pieces.
This photo relates to the first allegedly found brown Lockerbie-MST-13 timer fragment.
Fabrication of a green MST-13 timer fragment (PT35) used for the indiction of Libya
After the BUPO meeting 23th of April 1990 Thomas Thurmann and Scottish RARDE expert Feraday and Dr. Hayes knew the results through the picture identification from MEBO that the allegedly founded timer fragment in Lockerbie, with the police no. PT/35 (and the letter "M" on it) was brown and did not originate from a timer delivered to Libya. As a consequence 4 days later Inspector Keith Harrower (Scottish Police) visited on the 27th of April 1990, this the MST-13 fragment the electronic company Siemens AG in Munich, Germany. Engineer Brosante sawed this first brown original MST-13 fragment into two parts and confirmed: "standard brown PC-platine with 8 layers of fiberglass." The green machine made MST-13 timers delivered to Libya consisted of PC-boards with 9 layers of fiberglass.
Astrid Jutta Gassman-Thüring, Kamp van Zeist, Witness No. 555, from the PC-board fabricator Thüring at Zurich/Switzerland. In her statement she explained that MEBO Ltd. ordered on 8th of October 1985 from the Thüring Company 34 piece of MST-13 circuit PC-bords. Thüring produced 35 pieces of green MST-13 PC boards, however only 34 pieces MST-13 PC board were delivered on 5th of November 1985 at MEBO. 1 piece MST-13 PC-board remained with the production films in the company Thüring.
MEBO was informed that in 1990 several documents, production films inclusively 1 green MST-13 PC board were seized at the former Thüring office in Zürich by Swiss and Scottish investigation officials.
To further incriminate Libya for the bombing of PanAm 103 the conspirators were now urged to fabricate a green MST-13 time fragment. Between the 23th of April 1990 and the 15th of November 1990 a green MST-13 Timer fragment was fabricated and used for the indiction of Libya.
At the first official examination of witnesses Bollier/MEBO was questioned on the 15th of November 1990 and from the 14th to the 18th of January 1991 because Scotland had asked for legal international assistance from Switzerland in the Lockebie-case. Officials from the Sottish investigators, FBI and the USA were present under the patronage of the Swiss Federal Police (BUPO).
Important:
There was al lot of western secret service activity in September 1990 before the official investigators came to Switzerland. Actually the UK was obtaining legal assistance from Switzerland by false pretences, namely the falisfied MST-13 timer.
(see appendix 2)
On photos shown to Edwin Bollier by the Scottish police during that visit however the depicted fragment changed into a green mechanical Thüring board. The fragment PT-35 was now sawn into two pieces (DP31A and PT35B) without the letter "M" on it !
At the course of the investigations different photos in connection with the MST-13 timer were put in front of Edwin Bollier. Bollier remembers that the Scottish Detective Superintendent James Gilchrist pushed the BUPO to add his Scottish police photos (photobook 29) concerning the MST-13 timer fragment to the Swiss police protocols.
Deliberately or just luckily Commissoner Flückiger (BUPO) accepted and decided to add the FBI Polaroid-photos to the Swiss police protocols. Bollier had to sign the photos on the backside.
°°°°
Manipulations to match the dates of the brown an the green timer fragment:
Documents from Dumfries & Galloway Constabulary in Dumfries reveal the following criminal falsifications that had been ordered by expert Allen Feraday (RARDE) prior the Scottish investigating team traveled to Switzerland on the 20th of September 1990:
From this falsified green MST-13 Timer a Polaroid-photo was taken by RARDE photographer Rodrich MacDonald on the 12th of September 1990. Later it was dated back to the 12th of September 1989.
D&G Constabulary police produced belatedly a label for this green MST-13 timer fragment with no. DP137. This label was signed the 15th of September 1990 by Constabels DC ##### und ##### (Names known). The date of the label DP137 was also falsified and dated back by an official from the 15th of September 1990 to the 10th of September 1989! (Probably the date when the first brown fragment was photographed?)
This Label DP137 and the back dated Polaroid-photo (12th of September 1989) was transmitted by Allen Feraday (RARDE) on the 15th of September 1990 together with a memorandum also dated back (15th of September 1989) to Chief Inspector William Williamson.
Feraday wrote in this memorandum: "Williy, enclosed are some Polaroid photographs of the green circuit board. Sorry about the quality, but it is the best I can do in such a shorte time".
"I feel that this fragment could be potentially most important. So any light your lads/lasses can shed upon the problem of identifying it would be most welcome.
Allen (Feraday)
MEBO: Williamson's problem was that he needed a green MST-13 Fragment PC board to etangle Libya with the PanAm crash.
MEBO comment:
Apparently Insp. Williamson was in hurry about his visit on the 20th of September 1990 to Switzerland. For the exchange of the brown into a green circuit board he needed a new Polaroid-photo from a green MST-13 fragment.
It is logic that the order for a new Polaroid-photo came from Inspector William Williamson and was transmitted to Allen Feraday.
The falsified dates make sense because they match with the registration dates of the first fabricated brown MST-13 timer fragment.
From the 12th of September 1989 on FBI Polaroid photos existed concerning the fragment of a brown MST-13 timer, fabricated out of a handmade brown PC-board (Prototyp).
To match all evidence concerning the fabricated green timer all corresponding dates had to be falsified and rebooked to 1989. (Label DP137, Polaroid photos and the memorandum of Allen Feraday (RARDE) to Insp. Williamson)!

Actions of Strathclyde police Inspector Keith Harrower, witness No. 261 in Kamp van Zeist concerning his examination of the first brown MST-13 timer fragment:
In January of 1990 Keith Harrower was informed of the existence of an alleged piece of evidence (the first brown MST-13 timer fragment). Along with Detective Inspector William Williamson, he then carried out some inquiries in relation to the MST-13 fragment to identify where the circuit board had come from. In the beginning of his inquiries he took advice from several persons having experience in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards.
After several contacts with the printed circuit industry between January and April 1990, Harrower received from Mr. Woroll, Ferranti International in Lancashire UK, the recommendation to visit the company Siemens in Germany.
On the 27th of April 1990 Harrower visited the company Siemens AG in Munich, Germany. There he meet with electronic Eng. Brosante; who examined the first "brown" MST-13 Timer-Fragment.
Eng. Brosante saw the fragment into two parts on the 27th of April 1990. Afterwards it was clear for him that the first circuit board was fabricated out of a standard manufactured 8 layers glass fiber.
Harrower and several other officers returned with the results to Scotland. At Strathclide police the result was played down and this particular inquiry was followed up by other police officers...
(see appendix 6)
By order of Inspector W. Williamson Inspector Keith Harrower was subsequently replaced in May 1990 by Detective Inspector Michael Langford-Johnson, Strathclyde police, witness no. 118, based in Glasgow.
Exerpt from the court protocol in Kamp van Zeist, sworn statement by Detective Inspector Michael Langford-Johnson, Strathclyde police, witness no. 118:
Q- And in May of 1990, did you assist in a particular line inquiry along with Detective Inspector Williamson?
A- I did.
Q- Was that into manufacture of a small fragment of printed circuit board?
A- Yes, identified as (PT/35).
Q- Thank you. And did you understand that Inspector Williamson had been conducting these inquiries for some monts prior to you joing him?
A- I was aware of that, yes.
Q- Had he been assisted up until then by another officer, Mr. Harrower?
A- I believe so, yes.
In May of 1990, along with Mr. Williamson, did you go to the premises of Ferranti at Oldham?
A- Yeah, Ferranti International Computers and System Limited.
Q- There did you meet a gentleman by name of Mr. Worrol?
A- By arrangement, that's correct.
Q- Could you have before you, please, Label Nummer 353 and Label Nummer 419. Now, is Label 353, Inspector, the fragment of the printed cirquit board refered to by as PT/35?
A- Yes. And it bears my signature on it as well.
Q- Thank you. Now, is label number 419 apperently a sample moved from that fragment?
A- It is. And it bears my signature on the label again, sir.
Important comment from MEBO:
Under the label 419 the smaller part from the first "brown" MST-13 fragment no. DP/31(a) was registered; under Label 353 the new bigger part from a "green" (Thüring) MST-13 fragment no. PT-35(b) was registered!
Michael Langford-Jonson saw the second green PC-board alleged for forensic reason on the 12th of May 1990 into two pieces.
(see appendix 4)
For further secret dealings and concealings the green MST-13 fragment, registered as no. PT/35 was later sawn also into two pieces (no. PT/35B and DP/31A) and dated back to the same date (12th of May 1990) when the brown fragment alleged was sawn into two pieces.
On reason why Dr. Hayes dated his report 181 to the 12th of May 1989 was to show that a MST-13 timer fragment was found prior to the handing over of a brown MST-13 PC-board (prototyp) from Lumpert to an official investigator on the 22th of Juni 1989 (see Lumpert's Affidavit).
Notabene:
WHY did the Scottish Police (Dumfries & Galloway Constabulary) on the Label DP137 (the new fabricated and registered green MST-13 timer fragment) write the date from the 15th of September 1990 back to the 10th of September 1989?
Answer: Most probably because on this rebooked date (10th of September 1989) the first brown MST-13 fragment was photographed on the hitherto disappeared FBI-Polaroidphoto.
The new green fragment, photographed on September 1990, slipped into the role of the first brown fragment, photgaphed in September 1989. Only with the green fragment Libya could be linked to the PanAm 103 bombing!
To the memory: The MST-13 timer delivered to Libya was equipped with green circuit boards.
Report 181 was only finished and signed from Dr. Hayes on the 16th of December 1992, one year after the official indiction of the two Libyan officials on the 14/15th of November 1991. There was really plenty of time fo falsify and date back all relevant documents!
°°°°
Significant prove for the new Appeal of Abdelbaset al Megrahi
There is a contradiction in the police reports from the Lockerbie Trial Team concerning Det. Michael Langford-Johnson and the notes in Dr. Thomas Hayes' report 181:
(see appendix 3 and appendix 4)
- Dr. Thomas Hayes RARDE noted on the 12th of May 1989 in his report 181, which he finished on 16th of Decmber 1992 that a green fragment had been found in the collar of a T-shirt. He classified it with the registration no. PT-35B.
- Michael Langford-Jonson stated in a report from the Lockerbie Trial Team that on the in May 1990 he saw a MST-13 fragment into two pieces (PT35B and DP31A). (It was the brown one from U.Lumpert)
Contradiction:
How could Dr. Hayes already on the 12th of May 1989 classify the fragment PT35B, if it was sawn into two pieces for forensic reasons only on the 12th of May 1990 !
MEBO comment:
At the trial in Kamp van Zeist the pagination of the notes was described by Hayes as "an unfathomable mystery", for which he did propose an explanation, but unfortunately one that does not work.
Eye witness inspections of two different MST-13 timer fragments by Edwin Bollier
(see appendix 5)
In the office of Prosecurator Miriam Watson in Dumfries on the 14th and 15th of September 1999 Bollier for the first time was finally allowed to see the MST-13 timer fragment no. PT/35B und no. DP/31A and not only photos as in the investigation in 1990/91. On the first day he was shown a green PT35B fragment. On the next day he was shown the brown fragment DP31A. When Bollier interferred because he remarqued the difference of origin of the two timers he was shown PT35B and DP31A together.
But this time the green PT35B had been exchanged with an other green timer fragment. Bollier could clearly see that DP31A originated from the first brown PC-board from Lumpert.
Bollier immediately demanded for a police report to be issued at the Prosecutor Watson's office in Dumfries, Edwin Bollier requested for a witness to testify the differences of the colors betwen the two fragments, one green PT/35B and the other brown DP/31A. (See: police report from the 15th of September 1999)
Notabene: The statement of witness Kathrina Thomson is still held under closure. (responsible for it: Witness Kathrina Thomson, Prosecutor Miriam Watson, Prosecutor Mr. Harvie and 4 other police officers present at that time).
Bollier received the information that Detective Kathrina Thomson was and possibly still is urged to make wrong statements concerning the different colors.
At Bollier's testimony in Kamp van Zeist (2000) the fragment DP/31A had been totally burned in a way to make it impossible to recognize its colour (brown)!
PT/35B shown to Bollier at the Prosecurator Watson's office and the timer fragment shown to him during the trial at Kamp van Zeist did both not have the letter "M" scratched into their surfaces. (see police report)
It is not astonnishing that during the trial at Kamp van Zeist the Lord adocate refused to respond on any further questions from Bollier concerning the manipulated MST-13 timer fragment.
Hypothesis:
Is the secret document from Switzerland? And form the missing FBI photos the basis in the document "under national security" provided in confidence to the UK Government by a foreign authority on 13 September 1996? (point 5 in the SCCRC decision fom 28 June 2007)
MEBO/Bollier will require on behalf of Switzerland again for international legal assistance from the Scottish Justice.

Epilogue:
Cordial thanks of the Arab League for the support in the Lockerbie truth search.
The 20th Ordinary Arab Summit has demanded that all documents requested by the defence team in the trial of the Libyan political hostage Abd al Basset al Megrahi to be released to the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission. It authorized the Secretary General of the Arab League to follow up the decision and to report to the next Arab Summit.

Appendix 1
Since the last meeting (Mai 1991) of all investigation officer (USA,UK,CH) in Zurich and after a dispute between Commissioner Flückiger and Detective Superintendent James Gilchrist the FBI Polaroid-photo with the illustration of the first brown MST-13 timer fragment have vanished...
Why are the Lockerbie-Investigation-Authorities so reluctant to produce and show the orginal Polaroid-photographs??
Answer: Because with those photographs it can proven that the first brown MST-13 timer-fragment is from a MST-13 prototype PC-board of which none had ever been delivered to Libya.
Letters from Advocate Neupert to Mrs. Monique Saudan, the Swiss Federal Investigating Judge in the Lockerbie-matter, to order the FBI Polaroid-photographs used during the events under the provision of "Swiss legal assistance", to be produced for his own and MEBO's viewing! (MEBO MST-13 timer fragment, no. (PT/35) and others.
May 7, 2001:
Attorney Dr. Neupert has sent a registered mail on the 7th of May 2001 to Mrs. Monique Saudan to request the Swiss Federal Investigating Judge in the Lockerbie-affair, to hand out amongst other photos the Polaroid-photographs used during the events under the provision of "Swiss legal assistance", to him and MEBO for examination! (MEBO MST-13 timer fragment, No. (PT/35) and others.
May 25, 2001:
Attorney Dr. Neupert, informs E. Bollier that the Swiss Investigative Judge: Mrs. Monique Saudan issued an "Editionsverfügung" (instruction for edition) on May 25, 2001, fully approving the application to view said photographs. Instead, the Office of the Federal Police then gained time by extanding this date to
June 22, 2001.
Then, despite said extension, said photographs could not be produced by the Federal Police, because the authorities were allegedly waiting for the OK from the FBI/USA to see said photographs handed over to the Swiss Investigative Judge.
July 6, 2001:
E. Bollier had been officially invited to Bern/Switzerland to meet Swiss Investigative Judge Monique Saudan to view and discuss said evidence-photographs. He was told during this meeting that the OK had not been received from its owners!
July 9, 2001:
Attorney Dr. Neupert asks by official registered mail to receive proper legal arguments as to why Investigative Judge Monique Saudan did not produce said photographs, contrary to her "Editionverfügung" of May 25 and 31, 2001, as well as of her note of July 5, 2001.
July 23, 2001:
During a phone conversation between E. Bollier and Mrs. Saudan on July 23, 2001, it was discussed that photographs would now be released by Swiss Federal Police (BUPO) to Mrs. Saudan; - and that E. Bollier and his attorney are invited for this photo-examination on July 31, 2001 in Mrs. Saudan's office.
July 31, 2001:
Investigative Judge Monique Saudan was not able to produce said photographs on this date. E. Bollier was only shown some color-photocopies of rather inferior quality. The question was then placed to E. Bollier: "can you not remember that you were told that the orginal would be handed to the Scottish authorites? (Protocol of July 31, 2001)
August 3, 2001:
Attorney Dr. D. Neupert is still waiting for a reply to his letter of July 9, 2001 in which he asked Investigative Judge Mrs. Monique Saudan to explain the strange activities surrounding said Polaroid-photographs.
August 7, 2001:
In a letter received from Investigative Judge Monique Saudan we read that insight into said color-copies as well as other possibly available photographs will be granted during a shortly planned "confrontation" between representatives from the Federal Office of Police and Bollier/Neupert.
April 14, 2008:
Until today the FBI photos over the MST-13 fragment missing.

Statements of William Williamson
Important:
There was al lot of western secret service activity in September 1990 before the official investigators came to Switzerland. Actually the UK was obtaining legal assistance from Switzerland by false pretences, namely the falisfied MST-13 timer.
At the course of the investigations different photos in connection with the MST-13 timer were put in front of Edwin Bollier. Bollier remembers that the Scottish Detective Superintendent James Gilchrist pushed the BUPO to add his Scottish police photos (photobook 29) concerning the MST-13 timer fragment to the Swiss police protocols.
Deliberately or just luckily Commissioner Flückiger (BUPO) accepted and decided to add the FBI Polaroid-photos to the Swiss police protocols. Bollier had to sign the photos on the backside.
1. Excerpt from court documents, Kamp van Zeist. (7.June of 1999)
-Witness no. 994 Chief Inspector William Williamson, sworn statement:
Q- Now, you mentioned that you then received information that MEBO was the manufacturer, or might be the manufacturer, of the MST-13 timing device?
A- Yes, sir.
Q- Do you recollect where that information came from, Mr. Williamson?
A- Yes sir. From Mr. Gilchrist, the deputy senior investigating officer.
Q- and do you know where Mr. Gilchrist received that information from?
A- I don't, sir, no.
Q- What I'd like to do is to refer you to an account of certain matters in respect of your visit to Switzerland and then to ask you certain questions as to your state of knowledge.
A- Yes, sir.
Q- And if I can just quote this following account:
"In early September 1990, members of the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team, together with officers of the British Security Service, were making arrangements to travel to Switzerland. Their intention was to meet members of the Swiss police and intelligence service.
The purpose of the meeting was to take forward a line of inquiry suggesting that the company MEBO might have been the manufactures of the MST 13 timing device. Such a device had already been identified as forming part of the (IED) improvised explosive devise responsible for the destruction of PanAm 103.
Prior to the departure of these officers, a request was made by CIA to the British Security Service to deter or delay the members of the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team from making the visit. This request was refused, and the visit proceeded as planned. Separately, officers of the CIA met with the Swiss police and intelligence service on the day before the visit made by the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team and the British Security Service."
Q- Now, Mr. Williamson, were you made aware of these steps to deter or delay the members of the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team from making the visit to Switzerland?
A- Absolutely not sir.
Q- These were never disclosed to you?
A- I have no knowledge of that information you've just read out whatsoever.
Q- Was it disclosed to you that the day before you met with the Swiss police and intelligence services on the first visit the CIA had already met with them? Mr. TURNBULL: Don't answer that...
----Q- Mr. Williamson, do you know of any other police officers involved as members of the Lockerbie inquiry team who visited Switzerland for the purposes of identifying wheter MEBO were manufacturers of the MST 13 timer other than yourself?
A- Could you repeat that question?
Q- Yes, It wasn't a very good question, Mr. Williamson. In the period in the latter part of 1990, when you were going to make inquiries in Switzerland as to wheter MEBO were the manufacturers of the MST 13 timer, are you aware whether any other police officer who was a member of the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team made a separate visit to Switzerland to the one you made?
A- Yes, I am aware of that, sir. Yes.
Q- And do you know when this other visit was made?
A- No, sir. But it was prior to my visit.
Q- And do you know when this prior visit was made to Switzerland?
A- The exact date, no, I have no idea, sir.
Q- I see. Did you meet with Swiss police when you went to Switzerland?
A- Yes, sir.
Q- Do you know if members of the Swiss intelligence service were also present at such a meeting?
A- No, sir.
Q- You don't know, or they weren't?
A- Well, they weren't identified as such, sir, if any person was there.
Q- Was it disclosed to you that prior to your visit, the CIA had met with the Swiss police and intelligence services?
A- No, sir.
Q- Was it ever disclosed to you why the CIA might have wanted to deter the Scottish Lockerbie inquiry team from making their visit to Switzerland?
A- No, sir, I didn't ever know that they did do.
MEBO comment:
Civil aircrashes usually are investigated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the police.
Why the CIA, the British Security Service and The Swiss intelligence service were involved into the Lockerbie investigation?
It is questionable why the English/Scottish delegation at their visit in Switzerland on the 20th of September 1990 brought along among other things new Polaroid-photos with the illustration of a now green MST-13 fragment. The Polaroid-photo shows the green fragment registrated under the police label no. DP137 from the 15th of September 1990, fabricated from a Thüring PC-board.
It is obvious that after this visit Libya was deliberately linked with the bombing of PanAm 103 (Conspiration).
2. Excerpt from Court Documents, Kamp van Zeist. (8 June, 2000)
- Witness no. 994 Chief Inspector William Williamson, sworn statement:
---- Q- And was that about an item that he had examined?
A- Yes, sir. Production 333.
Q- Is this a memorandum, Mr. Williamson, adressed to you?
A- It is, sir, yes.
Q- And is it dated the 15th of September of 1989?
A- That's correct, sir, yes.
Q- And it explains that these are photographs of a green circuit board?
A- That's correct, sir, yes.
Q- And Mr. Feraday explains: I feel that this fragment could be potentially most important?"
A- Yes, sir, he does.
Q- And goes on to say: "So any light your lads/lasses can shed upon the problem of identifying it would be most welcome"?
A- that's correct, sir, yes.---
MEBO comment:
Additionaly in the memorandum was written:
"Williy, enclosed are some Polaroid photographs of the green circuit board. Sorry about the quality, but it is the best I can do in such a short time".
This part of the memorandum indicates clearly that Insp. Williamson shortly before his visit to Switzerland on the 20th of September 1990 had given the order to Feraday to organize a green MST-13 fragment and take Polaroid-photos of it.
Indication:
The date of the memorandum (15th of September of 1989) to Insp. Williamson is falsified and this was deliberately not mentioned by Insp. Williamson.
From the 10th or 15th of September 1989 on FBI Polaroidfotos existed, showing a brown MST-13 Timer fragment, fabricated from a handmade brown PC-board (prototyp).
To further incriminate Libya with the bombing of PanAm 103 in September 1990 a green MST-13 fragment was fabricated from a Thüring PC-board. Therefore all related evidence and documents as label DP137, Polaroid-photo and memorandum to Insp. Williamson had to be falsified and dated back to the year 1989!
Appendix 3
Statements of Hayes
Witness Dr. Hayes could not explain at the trial in Kamp van Zeist why he had already on the 12th of May 1989 registered the fragment PT35B in his notebook/report 181 and did define his own irregular notes "as an unfathomable mystery"!
Neither the Lord Advocate nor the Defece Team Duff & Taylor have questioned these mysterious statements of Dr. Hayes - a really gross negligence.
1. Excerpt from the Court-documents, Kamp van Zeist, (6 June, 2000) witness no. 586: Dr. Thomas Hayes - RARDE, sworn statements)
---Q- Well, you wrote the examination-notes that are now paginated as page 51, did you not, Dr. Hayes-
A- I certainly did.
Q- And you record in those notes on page 51 that PT35B was trapped in the collar of a shirt or in a piece of material?
A- Yes.
Q- Do you not?
A- Yes, I did. Yes.
Q- So that the fragment could not, presumably, have come to light, so far as the police were concerned, prior to it being extracted from the cloth by yourself?
A- That is correct, yes.
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 background, on the second paragraph of this memo?
A- I'm sorry, I can't, now.
Q- Very well. Is it not the case, Dr. Hayes, that if you had photographed PI 995 and the trapped material in May 1989, Mr. Feraday would have had access to those photographs?
A- I would imagine that he would, yes, most definitely.
Q- And would those simply be Polaroid photographs that you took at that time, Dr. Hayes?
A- It is most unlikely that they would be, no.
Q- I see. Well, you can cast no light on the matter of why Mr. Feraday, in September 1989, would be relying, because of the short time interval, on dubious-quality Polaroid photographs?
A- No, I can't think of any explanation at all, certainly in view of the apparent interval of time, no.
Q- So just to summarise your position on PT/35B, according to the examination notes at page 51, this was discovered by you on the 12th of May 1989?
A- Yes, it was.
Q- Do you actually reall finding this fragment in the cloth which is referred to as PI/995?
A- Ithink so. If I was --it's temping to be too helpful in answering your question and saying clearly a very important piece, you must have a memory of it.
You have flashbacks of certain important items that you've looked at. I question wheter those are flashbacks to the correct case examination or anoter case examination.
So although in my mind there is no question whatever that I did find it within this neckband, wheter I have a clear recollection in my memory of teasing it out, I would prefer not to be too definite about it.
Are you saying you don't recall having this item trapped in the pice of cloth, dr. Hayes, but are relying upon the notes you made at page 51?
A- I think it's reasonable to say in virtually all my recollections, after such a space of time, I am heavily dependent on my notes and the photographs.---- first part end
2. Excerpt from the Court-Documents, Kamp van Zeist,
(7 June, 2000)
witness no.586: Dr. Thomas Hayes- RARDE, sworn statements
----Q- The item which was found and labelled as PT 35(b) is later reported by you in report 181 as a fragment of a timer, or timing devise, which was associated what the bomb within the Toshiba radio/cassette recorder?
A- Yes, sir.
Q- Why was that never the subject of any form of chemical trace analysis to see if it had intimate contact with explosives, Dr. Hayes?-----
-----Q- With respect, Dr. Hayes, we are talking about an item which, according to your later report, was quite intimately associated with the explosive and the explosion itself, are we not?
A- With respect, you are referring to that?
Q- Yes, I am. And that's what I am asking you about, Dr. Hayes.
A- But my goals, one of my goals, was to determine the explosive used, having established that, little is achieved, in my opinion, in furthering that same inquiry upon other items known to have originated from the explosive device.
Q- Well, you say "known to have originated from the explosive device", Dr. Hayes. Had you carried out chemical trace analysis on PT/35b, you could have determined whether or not it had been intimately connected with the explosive and the explosion itself, could you not?
A- With respect, I would have not have achieved that because if it, for example, had orginated from a neighbouring suitcase, then one could be misled in interpreting the finding of explosive traces into believing it was an intimate part of the explosive device.
Q- But as a forensic scintist, you would identify and recognise the tracing of such explosive resiues as a relevant and significant adminicle, would you not?
A- As a forensic scientist, sir, I use my judgement as to which items I process for chemistry.
Q- So you process two pieces of aluminium container for chemistry, but you don't process the fragments of Toshiba radio cassette connected with the explosive device itself?
A- That's quite correct, sir.
Q- You are familiar whit the means by which such chemical analysis can be prepared, are you not, Dr. Hayes?
A- Can be preared?
Q- Well, it's not necessary to swab every item, is it, if you have small fragments. You can also wash them in solution and then use that solution in the same way as you would a swab?
A- Preferably you would wash them, yes, sir.
Q- Yes. So the size of the fragment would not inhibit such chemical analysis, would it?
A- The analysis would not be inhibited by any size of fragment. It's the realism applied to the likelihood of finding traces.
Q- On the fragments of Toshiba radio cassette, there would have been a realistic prospect of finding traces of explosive residue if these had been intimately connected with the explosion, would there not?
A- I don't believe so sir. The total surface area involved of all of the recovered fragments was relatively small.
Q- And are you suggesting that in solution that would not have been sufficient to throw up evidence in a chemical trace analysis?
A- I wouldn't rule out that possibility.
Q- Well, you did, by not carrying out the analysis, Dr. Hayes, did you not?
A- No. I didn't rule out the possibility. I ruled out the work that would be required.
Q- You were invoved in the case of the Maguire family that is the Maguire Seven case?
A- That's correct, sir.
Q- And there tracing scraped from under their nails were sufficient in size to admit of chemical trace analysis, were they not?
A- Yes, they were. I'm not quite sure of the relevance of your comment, but I agree with your statement.
Q- Well, on the basis of those tiny fragments, evidence of chemical contact was used as a basis for their initial conviction, was it not?
A- Yes. But you you haven't made a distinction there between handling explosives and post-detonation residues. And there is a large difference between the two.-------
-----Q- But you are familiar with explosives, are you not, Dr. Hayes?
A- Yes, sir, I am.
Q- And you know that when there is a detonation, you cannot normally expect there to be 100 per cent detonation of the high explosive. It may only be of a proportion of the explosive?
A- It will most certainly be a proportion, which will then be dissipated through the environment.
Q- And dissipated whit the explosive residue will be that proportion which did not detonate and which is pure explosive?
A- That is correct, sir.-------end second part
Mebo comment:
This allegedly Lockerbie recovered MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35) is said to have been found in the wreckage of PanAm-103 and to be part of the alleged IED that allegedly destroyed the aircraft from within container AVE 4041 PA. As of September 1989, Dr. Thomas Hayes and Mr. Allen Feraday knew already "miraculously" well that this MST-13 timer-fragment PT-35 was a decisive part of evidence. Yet, this so vital piece of evidence has never been tested for explosives - powder residue! A truly unforgiving act of negligence!

Statement of Michael Langford-Johnson
Excerpts from the Court- documents at Kamp van Zeist (day 17, of June, 2000)
Witness Michael Langford-Johnson, no.118, sworn statements:
Q- Are you Detective Inspector Michael Langford-Johnson?
A- I am, sir.
---- Q- Inspector, did you become involved in the inquiry in relation to the Lockerbie disaster?
A- I was, yes.
Q- And in May of 1990, did you assist in a particular line of inquiry along with Detective Inspector Williamson?
A- I did.
Q- Was that into the manufacture of a small fragment of printed circuit board?
A- Yes, identified as PT/35.
Q- Thank you. And did you. And did you understand that Inspector Williamson had been conducting these inquiris for some months prior to you joining him?
A- I was aware of that, yes.
Q- Had he been assisted up until then by another officer, Mr. Harrower?
A- I belive so, yes.
Q- In May of 1990, along with Mr. Williamson, did you go to the premises of Ferranti at Oldham?
A- Yeah, Ferranti International Computers and System Limited.
Q- There did you meet a gentleman by name of Mr. Woroll?
A- By arrangement, that's correct.
Q- Could you have before you, please, Label Number 353 and Label Number 419. Now, is Label 353, Inspector, the fragment of the printed circuit board referred to by you as PT/35?
A- Yes. And it bears my signature on it as well.
Q- Thank you. Now, is Label Number 419 apparently a sample removed from that fragment?
A- It is. And it bears my signature on the label again, sir.
Q- Had that sample already been removed by the time you began assisting Inspector Williamson?
A- It had, yes.
Q- Thank you.
And did you take both of these items with you when you went to see Mr. Worrol?
A- Yes.
Q- And were you hoping that he might assist in taking the inquiry forward?
A- Yes, in relation to the fiberglass laminate.
Q- Sorry?
A- In relation to the fiberglass laminate, trying to identify it.
Q- Thank you. When you spoke to Mr. Worrol on this occasion in May of 1990, did he require to do anything to any of the fragments that you took in order to assist you?
A- Yeah.------
Q- 419. That's the sample removed from the original fragment known as PT--.
A- Correct, giving the number DP/31.-----
Q- All right. Do you remember what color the fragment of printed circuit board itself was?
A- I can't remember.

Statement of Edwin Bollier
Excerpts from the Court-documents at Kamp van Zeist. (22th of June, 2000)
Witness Edwin Bollier, no. 548, sworn statements:
A-- So when the Scottish police came to Zurich again--this was somtime later--I asked Inspector Fluckiger whether I could see this photo again, because they didn't want to show us the orginal. Mr. Flückiger was sitting at the conference table and said "Yes". He opened his file. Mr. Meister joined me, and we were standing next to Mr. Flückiger, and I said to Mr. Meister, "It's clear here. Look at that". And then the member of the Scottish police got up--I forget his name now.
Comment MEBO: his name was Detective Superintendent James Gilchrist, the visit took place in May 1991).
He moved over to Mr. Flückiger and kind of knocked him and said, "Close the book". And this is the photo I want to see again. This is the photo that shows a prototype.
Q- All right.
A- This is how it all began. On that prototyp we could clearly make out something that would tell us that this was a fragment that had been produced from an MST circuit board.
Q- But the problem with that, Mr. Bollier, is that we've heard evidence--and I think you refer to this-- that the fragment was only linked--or identified as being from a MEBO timer in June of 1990, is that right?
A- That is correct. Yes. But, as I said, two to three months prior, the same fragment has been shown. A similar one. How did that come about?
Q- Yes. Well--
A- Was shown to us, Mr. Meister and myself.----
----Q- I see. So in your opinion, there may be a number of different fragments which have been variously photographed, is that the position?
A- No,no,no. They are different. There are minor details from which you can tell.
Q- I see. Would you look for me at an object which will be shown to you, Label 353.
A- May I ask you to put this on the table? I could wear gloves, if need be.
Q- Before we do that, can I ask you to confirm something for me. You've seen that fragment before, haven't you?
A- That is correct. Yes I've seen it in Scotland. This is what it looks to me right now. I would have to look at it more closely.
Q- And is it in a container or something at the moment?
A- It is here on the table. All you need to do is open the lid.
Q- And can you see it adequately? A- Yes, if I open it. Might I open it? Q- And what do you want to do whit it once it's opened?
A- I'd like to look at it with my magnifying glass.
Q- Well, if that's acceptable to the Court, the Crown have no objection.----
------Q- Have you had a chance to look at it?
A- Yes. No. I haven't opened it yet. May I take it out now? I am wearing gloves. Is that allowed?
Q- Yes. I think the Court granted you permission to do that.
A- Thank you. My Lord, I am sorry, this is not what I saw in Scotland. From what I can tell, this has been burnt afterwards. The other that I saw was shiny green, and now it looks as if it had been burnt afterwards. I don't even have to take out the second piece from its glass container. It used to be brown, PT 35,(DP/31a) now it is burnt. I'm sorry, I'm not trying to implicate anyone, but this has been altered, both of these pieces.
Q- Now, when was it that you saw this fragment in Scotland?
A- I saw it--I arrived on the 13th. A, I saw on the 14th, I believe, and B, on the 15th of September 1999.
Q- So in September of last year at the police station in Dumfries, you were shown--
A- Yes, in Dumfries. Yes.
Q- Make-- A -The police. And I had a witness because I wanted to have a report. She was assigned to me. She, too, saw both fragments. And now they have been modified. I swear they have been modified.---
---- Lord Sutherland: Thank you, Mr. Bollier.That's all.
A- My Lord, may I put a question? Am I allowed to do that? Lord Sutherland: I think not, Mr. Bollier. Your evidence is now over, and that is all we can hear.
Excerpts from the Court-documents, Kamp van Zeist. (June 2000)
Witness no. 567, Peter Flückiger, Swiss federal police, sworn statement:
----Q- Are you an officer with the Swiss federal police?
A- That is correct.----
----Q- You were in the company of Mr. Bollier, is that so? Mr. Bollier was present?
A- I wasn't alone. A colleague from the federal police came also. We drove to Zurich together. I think I must have phoned him beforehand in order to find out wheter he was free.
Q- Mr.Fluckiger. All I am really interested in knowing is if you actually spoke with Mr. Bollier in his premises. Did you do that?
A- Yes, I remember that well.
Q- Thank you. From what you've told us already, you took some photographs with you?
A- That is correct.
Q- And did you discuss with him-- and I really just need to tell me if this is correct or not-- did you discuss with him MST-13 timers?
A- Yes, that is correct. The MST-13, if I remember, was shown on the photograph.
Q- Did you also have with you a photograph of a fragment of a printed circuit board?
A- This is correct.
Q- And did you show that to Mr. Bollier?
A- Well, I would say that this was ten years ago. And at this stage, my memory is perhaps a bit vague. I would say that we certainly showed it to him, but we didn't start with a photograph of the fragment. There were other photographs where the entire timer was shown. And he already made a few comments on those.
Q- The only thing I am interested in for the moment is the photograph of the fragment. And if you took it with you, I need to go on and ask you if you showed it to Mr. Bollier.
A- Well, as I said before, I cannot be absolutely certain today, but I assume so, because in later discussions he always referred to that.----
----Q- Do you recognise that photograph, Mr. Fluckiger?
A- Yes, It is the first one I saw.
Q- Is it the same as the photograph you had with you when you visited Mr. Bollier's premises on the 2nd of October of 1990?
A- I certainly had it with me, but I had a second picture as well showing this fragment but in a slightly smaller size. ---
---- Q- And were these photographs used during the first of the interviews that you told us about with Mr. Bollier on the 16th November of 1990?
A- No. It wasn't in November. Well, I can remember such a booklet numbered 29 was put before Bollier by the Scottish official. But as far as I am concerned, I don't think I'have seen that album. We were allowed to make copies quickly, and then the Scottish official put it away.
From time to time we got pictures from Americans----
A- Look, chronologically speaking, I had written a memo on the 22nd of October 1990. There I took photographs and took them to Bollier, and these photographs came from the Americans. And he made his statement on the basis of the photographs. He made these statements to me, to the police. And then in November, when there was this interview of witnesses in Zurich, we worked with photographs, and I think Gilchrist brought this album with him.
Q- All right. Your photographs came from America, is that so?
A- That is correct. ---
Q- In your memo, which we looked at a moment ago-- and perhaps we should have it back on the screen, Production 1562, image 4. In your note here you speak, I think, in the first paragraph about a previous meeting, is that so?
A- That is correct. Yes.
Q- What was the date of the previous meeting?
A- I don't remember this by heart, but I can read it here. I wrote down 22nd of June 1989. It would have been on that date.
Q- Thank you. Was that date of the previous meeting in connection with MST-13 timers? Mr. BURNS: Don't answer that question.-----
----Q- Can we return to think about the meeting on 22nd June 1989, Mr. Fluckiger. Was that previous meeting in connection with the MST-13 Timers?
A- No, definitely not.
Q- Were any photographs of fragments, such as we've just looked at, shown to Mr. Bollier during the course of the meeting of June 1989?
A- No, no photographs were shown. And I can remember that the first photograph of that fragment was seen in September 1990. At that time, I didn't know anything about the fragment.
Q- When you say that the first photograph of the fragment was seen in September 1990, do you mean seen by you?
A- Yes, that is correct.
A- representative of the FBI came to Berne, and he told us----
---- A- I saw the photograph of the fragment for the first time at the beginning of September 1990. Before that, I didn't know anything about it.
Q- Can I ask you a further matter, please. Did you have a meeting with Mr. Bollier in March of 1990 at his offices?
A- Well, I don't think I can answer that question. Over the last ten years, I've met Mr. Bollier on several occasions. It's possible, yes.
Q- If you did meet Mr. Bollier in March of 1990, was it possible for you to have shown him a photograph of the fragment?
A- In March, certainly not. As I said before, I saw the photograph for the first time in September of 1990.----
---- Q- Thank you. Can you now look at Production 1568. Is that the record of an interview with Mr. Meister conducted at Zürich on the 14th February 1990?
A- That is correct. I wrote it myself.-----
MEBO Comment:
These statements show that H.P. Flückiger had admitted two visits to MEBO, namely: on the 22th of June 1989 and on the 14th of February 1990. The third important visit however in April 1990, during which E. Meister and E. Bollier were for the first time shown the Polaroid-photograph PI995 - showing the complete MST-13 fragment - this visit from P. Flückiger at MEBO’s office is still denied by him!
And this visit took place before Thomas Thurman presented on the 15th of June 1990 his identification of the allegedly found MST-13 timer fragment at Lockerbie. –
It is very unlikely that commissioner P. Flückiger, at that time employed by the Swiss Federal Police, has seen the Polaroid photograph with the MST-13 timer fragment (PT/35) for the first time in September of 1990 – especially if we know that officials from the Scottish police had visited the Swiss Federal Police as early as end of 1989/beginning of 1990 in the Lockerbie case!
Notabene:
During Inspector Flückiger's visit on the 22th of June 1989 he did not meet with Mr. Meister or Mr. Bollier but he actually had a secret meeting with ex-MEBO Eng. U. Lumpert.
Ex Eng. Ulrich Lumpert wrote in his Affidavit:
I confirm today on 18th July 2007 that I stole the third handmanufactured MST-13 timer PC-Board consisting of 8 layers of fiberglass from MEBO Ltd. and gave it without permission on the 22th June 1989 to a *person officially investigating in the "Lockerbie-case"
*(officer of the Swiss federal police (BUPO)
MEBO comment:
This is the first Polaroid-photo from the FBI and shows a brown MST-13 timer fragment and originates definitely not from the green timers delivered to Libya.
Edwin & Mahnaz Bollier
New documents in context with the MST-13 timer-fragment reveal the following criminal machinations:
The photo no. 329 was taken on the 12th of September 1989 by photographer Stephan Heines by order of Allen Feraday from RARDE shortly after the alleged finding of a MST-13 timer fragments.
This illustration shows - beside of the photos taken by the FBI - for the first time the first brown MST-13 fragment with the letter "M" scratched in, bevore it was examined and therefore cut for forensic reasons into two pieces. From the still visible technical features of the fragment MEBO Ltd is able to demonstrate beyond any doubt that the fragment originated from a "brown" Prototyp "Circuit board".
Actions of Strathclyde police Inspector Keith Harrower, witness No. 261 in Kamp van Zeist concerning his examination of the first brown MST-13 timer fragment:
In January 1990 Keith Harrower was informed of the existence of an alleged piece of evidence (the first brown MST-13 timer fragment). Along with Detective Inspector William Williamson, he then carried out some inquiries in relation to the MST-13 fragment to identify where the circuit board had come from. In the beginning of his inquiries he took advice from several persons having experience in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards.
After several contacts with the printed circuit industry between January and April 1990, Harrower received from Mr. Woroll, Ferranti International in Lancashire UK, the recommendation to visit the company Siemens in Germany.
On the 27th of April 1990 Harrower visited the company Siemens AG in Munich, Germany. There he meet with electronic Eng. Brosante; who examined the first "brown" MST-13 Timer-Fragment.
Eng. Brosante saw the fragment into two parts. Afterwards it was clear for him that the first circuit board was fabricated out of a standard manufactured 8 layers fiberglass PC-board. The green machine made MST-13 timers delivered to Libya consisted of PC-boards with 9 layers of fiberglass.
Harrower and several other officers returned with these results to Scotland. Strathclide police played the result down and ordered this particular inquiry to be investigated by other police officers ...
Appendix 6
SIEMENS AG
Witness number 261, Inspector Keith Harrower, Court at Kamp van Zeist. (day 7, of June, 2000)
Q-- Are you Keith Harrower?
A-- I am, sir, yes.
Q-- Are you an inspector with the Strathclyde police, based at Kirkintillock?
A-- That's correct, sir, yes. Having taken the advice of Mr. Rawlings, did you thereafter go to visit premises in Lancashire known as Ferranti International?
A-- Yes, I did. --
Q-- Now, at this stage of the inquiry, did Mr. Worrol make any request regarding a fragment?
A-- No.
Q-- Did he examine it for you?
A-- Yes, he did.
Q-- And did he give to you further suggestions as to what inquiry he might carry out?
A-- He did.
Q-- As a consequence, did you then go to Germany?
A-- I did so, yes.
Q-- and did you go to a company by the name of Siemens AG?
A-- Yes, sir.
Q-- There did you meet a gentleman, Herr Brosante?
A-- I did, sir, yes.
Q-- And did Mr. or Herr Brosante have a request to make of you?
A-- He did, yes.
Q-- Was that to remove annother fragment-- or annother sample, rather--from the fragment?
Q-- Would you look for me, please, at Label 419. Do you recognise that, Inspector?
A-- Yes.
Q-- As being?
A-- That's a sample that was removed in Munich, at Siemens.
Q-- and can you tell the date?
A-- Yes, sir, the 27th of April 1990.
Q- Thank you.
Anddid these inquiries into the source of the original fragment continue after this date, Inspector.
A-- Yes, they did.
Q-- Did you remain involved with them?
A-- No.
Q-- Did you move on to other inquiries?
A-- Shortly thereafter, I was retourned to the force, with a number of other officers, when the inquiry was being scaled down.
Q-- And this aspect of this particular inquiry, was that continued by others?
A-- I believe so, yes.
Q-- All right. thank you.
Because Feraday und other persons, after the questionings of Meister & Bollier by the Swiss Federal police on the 23th of April 1990 were informed, that the brown MST-13 fragment with the attribut "M" originated from a prototype, Libya couldn’t any more be entangled with the attack on PanAm 103 because the 20 MST-13 timers delivered to Libya were equipped with green PC-boards from the company Thüring.
To keep Libya entangled with the bombing of PanAm 103 from May 1990 on a new congruate "green" MST-13 fragment was fabricated.
After his visit to Siemens AG, Keith Harrower went back to Scotland and was from May 1990 on deliberately replaced by a new police officer, Det. Michael Langford-Johnson based in Glasgow. Without his knowing of already done examinations Det. Michael Langford-Johnson was ordered by Inspector William Williamson to continue fraudulent manipulations concerning the "MST-13 fragment.
MEBO comment: To keep secret the change from a brown to a green MST-13 fragment the continuity of the examinations from Keith Harrower to Inspector Michael Langford Johnson was thus interrupted!
Excerpts from the Court-documents at Kamp van Zeist (17th of June, 2000)
Witness Michael Langford-Johnson, no. 118, sworn statements:
Q- Are you Detective Inspector Michael Langford-Johnson?
A- I am, sir.
---- Q- Inspector, did you become involved in the inquiry in relation to the Lockerbie disaster? A- I was, yes. Q- And in May of 1990, did you assist in a particular line of inquiry along with Detective Inspector Williamson? A- I did. Q- Was that into the manufacture of a small fragment of printed circuit board? A- Yes, identified as PT/35.
Q- Thank you. And did you. And did you understand that Inspector Williamson had been conducting these inquiris for some months prior to you joining him? A- I was aware of that, yes. Q- Had he been assisted up until then by another officer, Mr. Harrower? A- I belive so, yes. Q- In May of 1990, along with Mr. Williamson, did you go to the premises of Ferranti at Oldham? A- Yeah, Ferranti International Computers and System Limited. Q- There did you meet a gentleman by name of Mr. Worol? A- By arrangement, that's correct.
Q- Could you have before you, please, Label Number 353 and Label Number 419. Now, is Label 353, Inspector, the fragment of the printed circuit board referred to by you as PT/35? A- Yes. And it bears my signature on it as well. Q- Thank you. Now, is Label Number 419 apparently a sample removed from that fragment? A- It is. And it bears my signature on the label again, sir. Q- Had that sample already been removed by the time you began assisting Inspector Williamson? A- It had, yes. Q- Thank you.
And did you take both of these items with you when you went to see Mr. Worrol? A- Yes. Q- And were you hoping that he might assist in taking the inquiry forward? A- Yes, in relation to the fiberglass laminate. Q- Sorry? A- In relation to the fiberglass laminate, trying to identify it. Q- Thank you. When you spoke to Mr. Worrol on this occasion in May of 1990, did he require to do anything to any of the fragments that you took in order to assist you? A- Yeah.------
Q- 419. That's the sample removed from the original fragment known as PT--. A- Correct, giving the number DP/31.--------
Q- All right. Do you remember what color the fragment of printed circuit board itself was? A- I can't remember.

The truth about the labeling of the first brown MST-13 fragment and the second green machine made (Thüring) MST-13 fragment:
On the 12th of September 1989 the allegedly found first brown MST-13 timer fragment was photographed by RARDE but was not yet labeled as PT/35.
After his return from Siemens AG on the 27th of April 1990 Inspector Keith Harrower did not bring the two remaining parts of the first brown MST-13 fragment together with the examination report of Eng. Brosante back to RARDE but left them in the hands of the Scottish Police (Insp. William Williamson).
In the beginnings of May 1990 Detective Inspector Michael Langford-Johnson, Strathclyde police, was introduced by Insp. Williamson into the manipulations concerning the MST-13 fragments. Langford-Johnson understood Insp. Williamson’s problem with the "brown" MST-13 fragment and that it could not be used anymore for further incrimination of Libya.
With a copy from a MST-13 fragment (duplicate) fabricated from a green (Thüring PC-board), the first brown fragment was exchanged by Det. Langford-Johnson. Insp. William Williamson’s problem was thus solved (see Feradays Memorandum).
Notabene: Only with a green MST-13 fragment Libya could be incriminated for the atrocity of the PanAm 103 bombing!
Prior its being cut into two parts the whole green timer fragment was internally named PT-35B. On the 12th of May 1990 the green MST-13 fragment was cut into two pieces and the two remaining parts were photographed by Langford-Johnson:
The bigger part was named PT-35(b) and labeled with label no. 353;
The smaller part was named DP-31(b) and was deliberately given no labeling number!
Simultaneoulsy prior its being cut into two parts the first brown MST-13 fragment was named PT-35A and both remaining parts sawn by Siemens AG were named internally by Det. Langford-Johnson as follows:
The bigger part was named PT-35(a) and was deliberately given no labeling number.
The smaller part was named DP-31(a) and given the label no. 419.
From the 12th of May 1990 on the bigger green part of the MST-13 fragments was officially named as PT-35(b) and registered under the label no. 353.
The smaller brown part of the MST-13 fragments was officially named as DP-31(a) and registered under the label no. 419.
It can be proven by documents in possssion of MEBO that under the guidance of Chief Inspector William Williamson out of the two manipulated and different MST-13 timers a new Patchwork MST-13 fragment was fabricated oficially named as:
PT-35B, joined from two parts:
PT-35(b)+DP-31(a)=PT-35B (Doc. UKC-64z)
All dates concerning the RARDE examinations of Dr. Hayes und Allen Feraday and the documents and labels of Dumfries & Galloway Constabulary in Dumfries were belatedly falsified and brought in accordance with the chronologie of the MST-13 fragments PT-35B (see the chapter above: Manipulations to match the dates of the brown an the green timer fragment.
Notabene: The correct date when the first brown MST-13 fragment was cut into two pieces was on the 27th of April 1990 in the company Siemens AG in Munich (see examination report of Eng. Brosante).
On behalf of Michael Langord-Johnson a specialist saw the green MST-13 timer fragment on the 12th of May 1990 allegedly for forensic reasons into two parts.
No doubt !!! Libya and his Official Abdelbaset Al Megrahi were deliberately entangled with the bombing of PanAm 103 by the manipulated piece of evidence PT-35B.
When will the culprits for this biggest fraud in the history of Scotland be condemned?
Lockerbie Trial Evidence Pictures from the MST-13 Timer-Fragment
The manipulated patchwork MST-13 timer fragment No. PT-35B used for the incrimination of Libya in the PanAm 103 bombing was produced in order of Police Insp. William Williamson, in the presence of Insp. Keith Harrower in a private company in Scotland, not in the better equipped labaratories of RARDE.

The marking "M" is clearly visibly on the MST-13 fragment. The photo was created on the 12th of September 1989. Later in Dr. Hayes examination report, page 51 was dated back to the 12th of May 1989!!
This photo depictures doubtlessly the brown MST-13 fragment that was fabriated from the third, not functioning, prototype Pc-board stolen by Ex-MEBO Engineer U. Lumpert.

A specific damage of material probably caused by an explosion on the solderpoint "r" indicates clearly that from this empty circuit board the green MST-13 fragment was fabricated.
The form of the damaged "r" on the empty Pc-board of the Thüring board is congruent with the form of the damaged "r" of the MST-13 fragment on IMAGE 3.

Allen Feraday's fraudulous exchange of the fragment AG/145 from a Toshiba radio-cassette player "BomBeat", RT-8016 against the fragment of a brown MST-13 timer fragment (PT-35)
 |
One of two fragments that proved crucial in tracking down the bombers of PanAm Flight 103 which exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, is shown on the tip of a finger. AP/WIDE WORLD PHOTOS |
Feraday began his examinations after the crash of PanAm 103 on the 28th of Dezember 1989 in order of RARDE (Royal Armament Research and Development Establishment, United Kingdom).
Allen Feraday is the same crook as FBI forensic expert Thomas Thurman: To both a sheer "possibility" was put in front of and the added willingly the needed proofs.
Section 6 in the RARDE Report 181, "Concealment of IED Radio" sides 106-107 show, that the belatedly indentified Toshiba radio-fragment Prod. AG/145 was allegedly found midth of January 1989 in the container AVE 4041 PA from the debrits of Boeing 747 by Crown investigators - and was brought to RARDE for forensic examinations on the 17th of Januar 1989 (Section 6.2.1).
With this fragment (green circuitboard) AG/145 of a Toshiba radio-cassette player Feraday visited from the 23th to the 25th of January 1989 the Federal Office for Criminal Investigations (BKA) in Wiesbaden, West Germany to examine whether the fragment did originate from a Toshiba "RT-F453F" radiorecorder.
The BKA had seized four of five such radios, modified as "improvised explosive device" (IED) in an action against terrorists in Oktober 1988 in Neuss, Germany. These IED-Radiorecorder were modified (not with a MST-13 Timer) but with an "altimeter incorporated along with a so-called electronic timer, sometimes called an ice-cube timer, coupled of course with detonator and explosive material".
The fifth IED-Radiorecorder Toshiba RT-F453F remained untraceable ...
After a visit to the Toshiba UK Headquarters at Camberley, Surrey (2nd of February 1989) and having searched 130 internal data sheets Feraday found out that the fragment originated from a different Toshiba radiorecorder of the type RT-8016'SF16.
Notabene: This Radio RT-8016'SF16 had been delivered to several Toshiba representations in Germany, Switzerland, Libya, Libanon and the USA.
(Did he chose deliberately a radio brand that was also sold to Libya?)
Subsequently a visit was made to the headquarters of the Toshiba company in Japan, between the 23rd of April 1989 and the 1st of May 1989.
After his visit in Japan Feraday found out that the fragment AG/145 definititely originated from a Toshiba radiorecorder type RT-8016'SF16 "BomBeat".
Feraday brought with him several radiorecorders of the same typ and used some of them for exlosive tests in the USA to get "samples" ...
On the 30th of June 1989, some paper fragments with the letters "HIBA" were allegedly found. This piece of a paper fragment originated from an instruction manual of a TOSHIBA radio-cassette player type RT-8016'SF16 (production PK-689, photograph 266).
At the trial in Kamp van Zeist Feraday explainded after beeing questioned on that subject:
Q- Is that the correct date? Antwort Feraday,
A- I'm afraid. It's a mistake that I made when I wrote the reports. And I think the correct date is the 11th of May 1989. And the error arises on my part because sometimes items would come and go to the laboratory several times. They would be booked in and out several times.
Q- And the examination bears the date 16th May 1989?
A- That's correct, yes, sir, yes.-----
Q- I see. And how then -- now that we've seen that the item could move in and out of RARDE on a number of occasions for a number of reasons, and that there would be a record kept of the date, both of its arrival and its departure, how can you help us to understand why the date 30th of June 1989 is given on page 107?
A- Well, I'm afraid that when I logged the whole list of comings and goings of items down when I wrote this report, I must have put my ruler across on the wrong line for this. I didn't, obviously, go back to the beginning of when we first received it. I must have inadvertently picked a date when it did certaily come back after some treatment of some description on the 30th of June 1989. But the truth is that we had received it before that. That wasn't the first time we received it.
The Toshiba fragment AG/145 in possession of Feraday since the 17th of January 1989 was depictured on the photos no. 245 (front) und No. 246 (back). On photo 245 the green circuitboard AG/145 was depictured with white printed letters and numbers on the fragment still visible: ..101' and L106'.
1. These letters and characters would not appear in white colour after an explosion.
2. The circuitboard, AG/145 and the MST-13 Fragment PT-35 were never examined for residues of explosives!!!
Replacement of the fragment AG/145 by a MST-13 timer fragment:
Page 127 of the report no. 181, Section 7, headed "Mechanism of the Improvised Explosive Device". Introduction: Several small fragments of various materials were recovered from part of a severely damaged grey-coloured "Slalom" brand shirt (item PI/995 described in Section 5.1.3) These fragments included many small pieces of paper which originated from the owner's instruction manual for the Toshiba RT-8016-SF16 radio (item PT/2 described in Section 6.2.2.), together with other small fragments apparently originating from the radio itself (it. PT/35(a);
PT/35(b); PT/35(c), described in Section 6.2.3 and 6.2.4 respectively. Amongst these radio fragments recovered from the grey T-shirt was a single fragment of a green coloured printed circuit board, designated as item PT/35(b).
On the 12th of May 1989 these above mentioned items from the damaged "Slalom" T-shirt were photographed by RARDE, (picture PI/995). Under designation PT/35(b) "a fragment of a green coloured circuit board" was depictured and marked by a red circle.
This fragment initially showed the fragment AG/145 originating from a (IED)-Toshiba Radiorecorder RT-8016-SF16.
With greatest probability the anyway faked photo no. 273 (PI/995) was manipulated again, showing now a brown MST-13 timer fragment with the letter "M" scratched in (fabricated from U. Lumpert's third prototype) instead of the fragment AG/145 at the place marked with a red circle.
Bollier/MEBO expertise: Technical-chemical specifications
The "Toshiba-fragment" was allegedly found by a Crown investigator and brought to RARDE on the 17th of January 1989. Text on the official AAIB report, page no. 50:
While this work was in progress a buckled section of skin from container 4041 was found by an AAIB Inspector to contain, trapped within its fols, an item which was subsequently identified by forensic scientist at the Royal Armaments Resarch and Developement Establishment (RARDE) as belonging to a specific type of radio-cassette player and that this had been fitted with an imrovised explosive device.
The partly burned breaking points of the fragments (AG/145) beside the designations "L'106--101" can not have occured by explosion:
1.) An expolision happens in microseconds, which would have catapulted the fragment into the piece of sheet metal which allegedly through its being curved stopped the fragment.
2.) Looked at under a microscop the enlarged breaking points of the fragment AG/145 show forensically seen doubtlessly that the fragment was presumably with a pair of tongue broken out of the Toshiba Radio-carrier platine and that some burning points had been added deliberately in a way that the white printed marks remained clearly visible and readable.
Normal points of fire at the hardly inflammable fiberglass material of the tiny fragement would have defintitely damaged the white printed designations ("L'106--101").
Lockerbie, 29th of April 1991
Meeting at the Lockerbie Incident Control Centre (LICC) with Swiss police Inspector Knaus and Swiss police officer Peter Flückiger, FBI Special Agent Richard A. Marquise (US Lockerbie task force), Tom Jourdan FBI, Inspector William Williamson (the Scottish officer who had been involved in the Swiss aspects of the investigation), Jim Gilchrist, Stuart Henderson (SIO-Officer) and Mr. "Hurrix" the British MI-6 representative.
Inspector Williamson presented on that meeting a fax (dated 12th of January 1990) from Allen Feraday (RARDE) about items he had found blasted into the collar of a T-shirt (brand: "Slalom"):
In addition to pieces of black plastic some wire and a piece of the instruction manual from a Toshiba radio cassette player RT-SF16 were allegedly discovered. The most significant item was a fingernail size chip, green in color, with solder for a circuit on one side only. This chip became known as PT-35, a designation given to it by the Scottish Police. The fragment AG/145 had also solder only one side.
The memorandum (prod. no. 333) written by Allen Feraday to Insp. William Williamson on the 15th of September 1989 stands in oppositon to this fax. This date was dated back by Allen Feraday! (the correct date is the 15th of September 1990)
Why did Insp. Williamson show on the 29th of April 1991 the fax (dated 12th of January 1990) and not the memorandum No. 333?
Answer: First of all, because the date of the memorandum was falified; secondly because the fax (dated 12th of January 1990) had to give a more exact description of the green circuit board fragment by stating that only one side of the circuit board showed soldering traces. Such it could distract from the Toshiba radio fragment AG/145.
Further on this fax shows that the name PT-35 was used for all 4 pieces of dicovery a) b) c) d) only from January 1990 on..
To document belatedly this new piece of evidence (see page 50 of Hayes report that had described an allegedly discovered radio cassette player fragment fitted with an IED = AG/145) side 51 in Hayes' "examinations draft report" with the falsified date (12th of May 1989) was an empty torn out page, newly written that was added to Dr. Hayes "examinations draft report" after page 50 and the original pagination no. 51-56 was overwritten by the wrong pagination 52-57.
After this " Instruction Meeting" on the 29th of April 1991 in Lockerbie it was definitiely clear that Libya had to be incriminated for the attack on PanAm103.
The next morning, on the 30th of April 1991 Mr. Henderson, the two Swiss officers and Richard A. Marquise flew to London and took a train to RARDE to meet Allen Feraday and an his associate, Maurice Marshall.
Allen Feraday had decided to personally examine all the evidence in the case. Feraday brought with him the piece of evidence PT-35. This was a green circuit-board fragment, not splitted in two parts (PT-35(b) and DP-31(a) which led to the identification of MEBO as the source of the timers subsequently traced to Libya.
Notabene: The original brown MST-13 Pc-board was splitted in two parts by the company Siemens AG on the 27th of April 1990.
The two Swiss police officers were convinced. This was important and after all the purpose of their invitation. After being at RARDE the two Swiss officers headed for downtown London and had a meeting with the British Security Service (BSS) for a coordinated final report focusing on MEBO's MST-13 timers and Libya...
MEBO's inquiries in the Lockerbie-Affair have brought to light up to now 94 punishable acts for prosecution such as technical manipulations of evidence, forgery of documents, instigation for criminal machinations and wrong testimony.
The "Lockerbie-fraud" is not only the biggest crime in the modern history of The UK but will also be followed up by furher investigations under the patronage of the UN, EU, AU and the Arab League.
In progress: The 94 criminal acts in the "Lockerbie-Affair"
Edwin Bollier thanks for all important documents
Today I believe that these decisive documents which are needed for the reversal of this politically motivated miscarriage of Judgement have been passed to me on purpose. With these reports one can doubtlessly exclude the MST-13 Timer and the transfer of a bomb bag from AirMalta Flight KM-180 to PanAm 103/A in Frankfurt. Therefore the constructed chain of evidence from Malta-Frankfurt-London, as presumed in the Lockerbie trial, is absolutely untenable.
Today we can prospect that a appeal of the Lockerbie trial with all the proved, exonerating evidence is leading to freedom for Megrahi and to the reestablishment of Libya's honour.
