Police are looking for assistance from the public to trace the next of kin of an elderly man who died recently.
John Montgomery, who was 91 years old, was discovered in his home at Grays Court in the capital on Saturday 26th April and all efforts by police to find any of his relatives have so far proved unsuccessful.
Anyone who thinks they have some information which may be of use should contact Police Scotland on 101 or, alternatively, the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
