Overview
- Police Scotland said officers attended the address, engaged with the crowd and that the gathering dispersed with no arrests after protesters gathered on Monday, July 6.
- Video and eyewitnesses show Rosdeep Adekoya being escorted into a police vehicle while neighbours heckled her and shouted insults as she left the Greenfield area.
- Adekoya admitted culpable homicide for the 2014 death of her three-year-old son Mikaeel Kular, was sentenced to 11 years and was released from Cornton Vale in April 2021 after serving about six years.
- She previously lost a bid at the Court of Session for lifelong anonymity, and local reporting and online posts helped identify her location before the July 6 protest.
- It remains unclear whether authorities have rehoused Adekoya or will return her to the property and the incident has heightened local safety concerns that could prompt review of post-release placement and supervision.
