A member of the crime-linked Lyons family has told STV News of the day his nephew was gunned down in his garage in Glasgow - insisting his family were "victims, not perpetrators".
David Lyons also denied he was a gangster or had any involvement in drugs.
Mr Lyons, who has no convictions, is the owner of Applerow Motors in the city's Lambhill area, the garage where in December 2006 his nephew Michael Lyons was shot dead.
He said: "We were victims that day, not perpetrators. And since that day my name has never been out of the paper.
"I seen the two gunmen walking in and walking towards my nephew's car and I just screamed at all the boys to move ... the gunmen were chasing us, just firing."
Mr Lyons also denied all the claims against his family saying "maybe one or two" were involved in crime but said everyone had been "tarred with the same brush".
He also denied his family were involved with turf wars, drugs and feuds with other families, putting fear on the streets of Glasgow. Mr Lyons also said his business was not used as a front for any illegal activities.
In 2008 Raymond Anderson and James McDonald were jailed for 35 years for the shootings - the highest sentence ever handed down by a Scottish court.
Last week, Vosa, the Vehicle and Operators Service Agency, withdrew Applerow's permission to conduct MoTs. Mr Lyons says this is "beyond a joke", coming as it does three years after Michael's death. The agency says it is working with Strathclyde Police to maintain public safety.
Asked about his wider family's involvement with crime Mr Lyons conceded that there were "one or two" incidents, but said this was "not to the extent made out in the media". He also denied that his family are "at war" with the Daniels.
