Dylan Rigby (20) entered a guilty plea at the High Court in Edinburgh on Thursday to a charge of attempted murder, abduction and assault.

This plea relates to an incident involving a male victim on 21 March 2021.

Detective Inspector Jonny Wright of Gayfield CID, Edinburgh said :”This was a significant crime involving deplorable levels of violence committed by Rigby.  Thankfully, incidents of these nature do not happen often in Edinburgh.  My thoughts continue to be with the victim in the case.  Rigby will now face justice for his actions, which will hopefully contribute to bringing some closure to the victim.”
