# The trial of a Libyan man accused of helping build the bomb used in the Lockerbie bombing has been postponed just days before it was due to begin. A US judge says newly-discovered evidence means the defence needs more time to prepare. Abu Agila Mas’ud has pleaded not guilty to charges linked to the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland, killing all 259 people on board and 11 on the ground. No new trial date has been set, but a hearing is scheduled for Tuesday.
