The Foreign Secretary David Miliband has said that the British government was "not actively seeking" the death of Abdelbasset al-Megrahi in prison.

And he rejected allegations that the release of the Lockerbie bomber was linked to "some kind of deal", and insisted that London had not pressured the Scottish government over the issue.
