The family of Sheku Bayoh has called for public support at a vigil to be held on the day an inquiry into his death begins.
In a message released seven years to the day after he died while being arrested by police officers in Kirkcaldy, Bayoh's sister Kadi Johnson said her brother had been "criminalised, stereotyped and smeared".
Bayoh died aged 31 while being taken into police custody on May 3 2015. A post-mortem found he had multiple injuries.
