A community facility in Coupar Angus was defaced by Nazi graffiti just before it was officially opened by local MSP John Swinney.
Police recorded a number of crudely spray-painted swastika signs on the walls around the Strathmore Community Hub, believed to have happened just before the refurbished medical centre now put to community use had the Deputy First Minister cut the ribbon on October 8.
The wall of the Hub building was marked together with two other buildings close by with the same black spray.
