- One tiny fragment sifted from the tons of debris that
- rained down over Lockerbie, Scotland, may at last reveal who
- blew up PAN AM 103. While both Syrian and Palestinian terrorists
- have been suspected of planting the bomb, the focus has shifted
- to the Libyan intelligence service. Scottish police, baffled by a
- fingernail-size bit of electronic circuitry from the wreckage,
- shipped it off to Washington. When FBI lab analysts compared the
- shard with the printed-circuit boards of two unexploded bombs
- taken from Libyan agents in Africa, it was a match. FBI agents
- and Scottish investigators tracked the timers to a Swiss
- electronics firm, which acknowledged selling two dozen to the
- Libyan government. A grand jury in Washington is expected to
- indict several Libyan intelligence agents in November.
