Police Sergeant Gordon Cameron, Fife Missing Persons co-ordinator said : “The past ten years for Sandy’s family and friends have been very difficult, not knowing what has happened to him. My thoughts are with them as another anniversary passes. Our enquiries to establish the circumstances surrounding his disappearance continues, and any new details will be thoroughly investigated.
