A Libyan man accused of building a bomb for a 1988 terrorist attack that killed 270 people in an American plane over Lockerbie, Scotland, is in U.S. custody, officials said Sunday, a new development in a decades-long effort by the Justice Department and Scottish authorities to prosecute those responsible.
