Serial killer Peter Tobin has been secretly cremated and his ashes dumped at sea, the Sunday Mail can reveal. The 76-year-old’s funeral took place at a crematorium on Thursday evening without any service.
The cremation was organised by Edinburgh City Council after Tobin’s death last Saturday morning as he lay handcuffed to a hospital bed.
The council took over the funeral arrangements after no family members or next of kin came forward to claim his body.
