Gaia Pope murder suspect released

-

A 49-year-old man arrested on suspicion of the murder of missing teenager Gaia Pope has been released under investigat­ion.

The man, named locally as Paul Elsey, was arrested on Thursday afternoon and quizzed about the disappeara­nce of the 19-year-old.

He was the third person to be arrested in connection with the inquiry. Dorset Police said clothing discovered on Thursday on open land north of Swanage appeared to be Miss Pope’s and matched what she was wearing when last seen.

Five councils are taking part in the scheme, which will be rolled out to the whole of Scotland if successful.

One Card removes barriers between services and gives access to more than 120 libraries and 1.6 million books. It was launched in Aberdeen by Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop.

It will run for six months across the Aberdeen, Aberdeensh­ire, Angus, Highland, and Perth and Kinross areas.
