(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:

Lamen Khalifa Fhimah, 41: A Libyan intelligence officer who operated under cover on the Libyan Arab Airlines, he is believed to have played a role in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland.

A reward of up to $4 million has been posted for information leading to his arrest. He is described as a male with black hair, dark brown eyes and a light brown mustache, and about 5'7", 190 pounds.
