Hmm (again)

Here. Amongst the sound of BBC violins, this jarring note:

Al Megrahi's liberty had been restricted for more than 17 years.

OK. The very next paragraph...

The court heard Al Megrahi was married and had five children aged between 10 and 25 and two grandchildren.

Note: five children aged between 10 and 25. His liberty has apparently been restricted for more than 17 years. As our American cousins say, do the Math.
