An appeal for friends and associates of Mr Ciania has now been translated into Polish, Russian and Lithuanian and placed on the Lothian and Borders Police website in order to reach the Eastern European communities.

Officers know little about Mr Ciania’s lifestyle and are appealing to anyone who knew him, or who may have worked with him in the past.

A team of 40 officers is currently working on the case.
