The familes of Allan Marshall and Sheku Bayoh united together in Edinburgh on Saturday, gathering to demand an end to deaths in custody in Scotland.
Allan Marshall was 30 when he died after being restrained by 17 officers in HMP Edinburgh. His family are to sue the Scottish Prison Service.
Sheku Bayoh died in 2015 after an incident in Kirkcaldy. He was 31. There is now a Public inquiry into his death to establish the circumstances in which he died and also to make any recommendations to prevent other avoidable deaths.
