The brother of a woman who died by suicide in a young offender's institution has accused the authorities of continuing to let down his sister.
Scott Allan argues that the Scottish Prison Service has not been held accountable after his sister, Katie, died in 2018 at the age of 21. He has shared his grief after Katie took her own life in a cell in Polmont while serving a sentence for a driving offence.
He and his parents, together with the brother of William Lindsay, 16, who also killed himself in the same institution, met senior figures from the Crown Office in Edinburgh on Thursday. After talks with Principal Crown Counsel Ashley Edwards KC, the families hit out, with lawyer Aamer Anwar alleging there has been "no justice" for them.
