Police officers investigating an alleged sexual attack in Leith have closed the case after confirming that no crime had taken place.
An investigation was launched on Thursday following a report that a 17-year-old girl had been subjected to a sexual assault near South Leith Parish Church in Constitution Street.
Police made an appeal for witnesses at that time but have now confirmed that the case is closed.
In a statement released on Monday, 26 October, a police spokeswoman said: “Following extensive investigations, no criminality was established.”
