Rapist's death on remand at Scots prison to be probed in Fatal Accident Inquiry

An inquiry will be held into the death of a rapist at Low Moss prison. Paul Dowds died in hospital after collapsing while on remand at the Bishopbriggs jail.

Glasgow Sheriff Court will hear details of the circumstances leading up to his death at a Fatal Accident Inquiry (FAI) in the new year, reports Glasgow Live.

The 45-year-old was a convicted sex offender who was sentenced to seven years in 2007 for rape. Dowds had previously flouted the terms of the sex offenders' register by going AWOL in his native Greenock for almost a week.
