Can't really Magda. I just noted it from the Wiki entry and it jumped out at me.
However, in relation to other matters - I'm actually thinking about the background and surround-ground of Lockerbie - similar things have happened - i.e., that the British and American underworld would appear to be politically protected at certain levels. Here, I am remembering a specific secret police investigation and report that got swept under the carpet, the report and all the evidence collected destroyed and the senior police officer who conducted the investigation deciding to take early retirement because, I understand, he couldn't stomach what happened. Involved were a UK based CIA arms outfit, PIRA, Angelo Dundee, Pan-Am Lockerbie, drug running, a rather well known British comedian who made his name in a TV series "The Comedians" who was also a night-club owner plus members of the Manchester based "Quality Street Gang" who apparently possessed sufficiently powerful information that their detention in a police cell was (as I remember it anyway) rescinded and they were allowed to go scott free.
In other words, crime and politics always go hand in hand.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
