A highly trained team of police officers is stepping up their efforts to trace a Glasgow man wanted for murder.
Derek McGraw Ferguson is being hunted in connection with the death of dad-of-three Thomas Cameron who was fatally shot in the Auchinairn Tavern car park in Bishopbriggs where he worked on June 28, 2007.
An international warrant is in place for Ferguson's arrest with the force believing he may have assumed a new identity in Spain.
Police Scotland’s Fugitive Active Search Team is "relentlessly" searching for the suspected killer.

The team has previously been involved in the arrest and extradition of convicted murderers John Kennedy, Christopher Hughes, Jordan Owens, and Thomas Duris as well as drug traffickers Mark Quinn, David Hough, and Peter McConville - sentenced to a total of 113 years in prison for their crimes.
Detective Chief Superintendent (DCS) Vicky Watson, Police Scotland’s Head of the Organised Crime and Counter Terrorism Unit and the senior officer responsible for FAST, said: "The success of the team is testament to the perseverance, diligence and commitment of our officers who continue to work tirelessly to locate and bring fugitives back to Scotland to face the consequences of their criminal activity.
“Our officers are relentless in their pursuit of criminals who think they are untouchable and above the law or think they can evade justice by fleeing the country.
"Or team has established and maintains close working relationships with a wide range of international partners including Europol, INTERPOL, the National Crime Agency, Foreign Law Enforcement Community and European Network of Fugitive Active Search Teams.”
"As part of investigations into tracing fugitives, FAST has identified and developed further local and international lines of inquiry. This has resulted in the arrest and disruption of members of serious and organised crime groups in Scotland."
Crimestoppers has offered a reward of up to £10,000 for information that leads to Ferguson's arrest.
