It has been revealed that evil serial killer Peter Tobin’s remains were covertly cremated and his ashes dumped at sea in secret.
Edinburgh City Council are understood to have arranged the cremation of the infamous murderer on Thursday, October 13 and that no service was held. Tobin died last Saturday, October 8, whilst chained to his hospital bed.
The local authority was forced to make arrangements for the funeral after none of Tobin’s remaining family members declared an interest in claiming his body, the Sunday Mail revealed. A source said: “After he died, this was dealt with quickly. Like serial killers Robert Black and Angus Sinclair, it was considered best that his remains were scattered in the sea.”
