A convicted murderer who was jailed for his part in a hit on a man in a Glasgow street has been blocked from operating as a landlord in the city.
Morton Eadie was sentenced to life imprisonment, with 22 years before he can seek parole, for the murder of Kenny Reilly in Maryhill in 2018. He is hoping to overturn the guilty verdict at the Court of Criminal Appeal in Edinburgh.
Mr Eadie had asked to be entered into the register of private landlords but, after hearing from a council official, the city’s licensing committee ruled he was not a “fit and proper” person and refused this application.
