World

The family of murdered Scot Suzanne Pilley have made a desperate plea to the public to help find her body, on the 10th anniversary of her disappearance.

The 38-year-old's family live with the nightmare of not knowing her final resting place and have made a fresh appeal for information.

The sister of Suzanne, who went missing in Edinburgh on her way to work, said her family have been left in “limbo” and are “unable to say a proper goodbye” until her body is found.

Her former partner David Gilroy, now 57, was convicted of her murder in 2012 and must serve 18 years of a life sentence.

Sick Gilroy has never revealed where Suzanne’s body was hidden and, despite extensive searches, it was never been recovered.

Many searches were focused in the Argyll Forest Park but nothing has proved successful in tracing Suzanne’s body.

Today marks a decade since Suzanne was last seen as she made her way to work as a bookkeeper at a Thistle Street Office in Edinburgh.

Her sister Gail Fairgrieve urged anyone with information to contact police.

Gail said: “For the past decade we have lived in a state of limbo, waiting for the news that Suzanne's body had been found, but we've never been able to get that closure.

“We accept that Suzanne was murdered and believe that the person responsible is in prison, but we feel we cannot say a proper goodbye until her body is found.

“Both my mother and I want to again thank the public who have continued to contact the police, which has always given us hope that Suzanne has not been forgotten.

“We understand that only one person can tell us where Suzanne is but has refused to do so.

“Police Scotland will respond to any information and are committed to bringing us some form of closure.

“Their investigation can only conclude when Suzanne is found and so I would plead with anyone who knows something but hasn't come forward to search their conscience and get in touch.
