The £10,000 reward for the arrest of Scotland’s most wanted men has been dropped after they were posted missing, presumed dead
The £10,000 reward for the arrest of Scotland’s most wanted men has been dropped after they were posted missing, presumed dead. Charity Crimestoppers put up the bounty for the capture of alleged kingpins James and Barry Gillespie – dubbed The Pablo Escobar Brothers. They are wanted as part of a global probe into money laundering, drug dealing and gun trafficking.
They bunkered down in a Brazilian bolthole amid claims they ran a multi-million pound organised crime empire which flooded Scotland with drugs and guns. But underworld sources claim a feud with Brazilian gangsters over protection money led to their deaths. Their families were told by Police Scotland last year that officers believed the pair “may have come to harm”.
But all contact ceased amid the claims they had been murdered in Brazil. An insider said: “There hasn’t been a peep in the last year. Even when they were on the run, they used their technological know-how to make sure their loved ones also knew how they were. Understandably, their families fear the worst. They’re trying to be as positive as possible, especially as there’s kids involved, but it gets tougher every day.families but they’re still searching for answers.
