Fresh appeal made one week on from Ibrox murder
40-year-old James Watt was found dead in his flat on Copland Quadrant in Ibrox last Friday
A fresh appeal for information has been made a week on from the murder of a man in a Glasgow flat.
40-year-old James Watt was found dead in his home on Copland Quadrant in Ibrox on Friday 23 February, with a murder inquiry launched following a post-mortem.
Enquiries carried out so far have revealed that James was in Brighton Place around 1pm. Officers say they are also aware that James was involved in an altercation with another man in Clynder Street before 1pm. Following the altercation, James left Clynder Street and walked to Brighton Street.
Police are continuing to examine CCTV footage from the surrounding areas for any additional information which could assist their enquiries.
Officers recently appealed for a man, who was seen in James’ company to contact them. This man has yet to come forward and detectives are urging this man to contact them.
Detective Chief Inspector Suzanne Chow said: “We are grateful for the information we have received regarding James’ movements, however we believe there is still information out there which could assist us in our investigation.
“It is possible people think we have everything we need, but that is not the case and I’m appealing to members of the local community to get in touch with us.
“Don’t dismiss what you know as insignificant, let us be the judge of that and please do pass the details on. Your information could be the vital link we need to find whoever is responsible for this murder.”
Anyone with any information is asked to call officers at the Major Investigation Team at Osprey House via 101, quoting incident number 4468 of Friday 23 January 2018. Alternatively, please call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be given anonymously.
