A steady flow of funerals were being held; each one covered in the press, but with decreasing interest as the grim procession of death continued. Graeme Donald had been in contact with the anti-terror department at the Ministry of Defence, but so far they had been unable to pinpoint exactly where the plastic explosives had come from. Officials believed the material might have been part of an order sent by UK PLC to the Libyan government in 2010 as a result of the thawed relations between Britain and Colonel Gaddafi’s regime. In Scotland the move had not been popular, with memories of the Pan Am plane bombing at Lockerbie still deeply entrenched in the public’s psyche. Gaddafi was not a man to be trusted. Ironically his death had led to the liberation of an arms shipment, which would have been stored at one of the many Libyan munitions dumps. Exactly where they had been found was impossible to say. None of the official records had survived and the current government was unable or unwilling to help.
