Britain’s most wanted: £10k reward as police hunt Briton Derek Ferguson for murder in June 2007
Anyone who can help police track down a man wanted in connection with a murder 15 years ago may be given a reward of £10,000.
Crimestoppers has increased the reward available for information leading to the arrest of Derek Ferguson.
He is being sought by police in connection with the murder of Thomas Cameron outside a pub in Auchinairn Road in Bishopbriggs 15 years ago, on 28 June 2007.
An international warrant for Ferguson has been issued in connection with the case.
Officers leading the investigation believe Ferguson may be in Spain, and say he is unlikely to be living under his original name and may no longer speak with a Scottish accent.
Speaking about the case, Detective Chief Superintendent Paul Livingstone said: “Despite 15 years having passed, Police Scotland’s investigation into the murder of Thomas Cameron in 2007 continues.
“Our extensive inquiries have never ceased, which underlines our unwavering commitment to tracking down Derek Ferguson.”
