The head of an inquiry into the killing of an Aberdeen schoolboy has asked for the public's help.

Bailey Gwynne, 16, was stabbed through the heart by another pupil at Cults Academy in Aberdeen on October 28.

Child protection expert Andrew Lowe is leading an independent inquiry into his death, backed by Aberdeen Council and Police Scotland.

Mr Lowe plans to meet members of the public with information about the killing on Tuesday, June 21.

The 16-year-old who stabbed Bailey, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was charged with murder but found guilty of the lesser charge of culpable homicide.

The teenager was also found guilty of carrying a knife and knuckledusters in school and was sentenced to nine years detention on April 1.

Anyone with information relevant to the inquiry has been asked to contact the council by 10am on Monday, June 20.
