From CNN Interactive Writer Wayne Drash
(CNN) -- The death of Andrew Cunanan ends an exhaustive
manhunt for one of the FBI's 10 Most Wanted, but the search
for other elusive suspects presses on. Some cases have
dragged on for years, turning up little more than bogus
leads.
Though few cases have drawn media attention like the Cunanan
hunt, authorities have asked for public help in tracking down
the fugitives, including two Libyans who are wanted in
connection with the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 that
killed 270 people.
Anyone with information about possible suspects should call
local FBI officials or log onto the FBI's "Most Wanted" Web
page at www.fbi.gov. (A listing of FBI field offices is
provided at http://www.fbi.gov/fo.htm.)
The following is a list of the elusive suspects wanted by the
FBI:

who operated under cover on the Libyan Arab Airlines, he is
