An Edinburgh dad who murdered his two-year-old son in a twisted revenge plot has dropped his appeal against conviction.
Lukasz Czapla killed his son Juliusz at his home in Muirhouse, Edinburgh, after finding out the boy’s mother Patrycja Szczesniak was in a new relationship.
Earlier this year, in May, he was found guilty of murder following a trial at the High Court in Edinburgh. The court had heard that Czapla, 41, originally from Gdansk in Poland, shot Juliusz in the head with a BB gun, stabbed him with a skewer-like instrument and smothered him with a pillow, reports the Record.
