One guilty and one cleared over murder of retired teacher

Peter Coshan was lured to a flat in Edinburgh's Seafield Road in August 2022.

A man who murdered a retired teacher from the exclusive Fettes College in what police have described as a horrendous crime is facing a life sentence.

A judge told 29-year-old Paul McNaughton he’ll face significant time behind bars for killing pensioner Peter Coshan in Edinburgh.

His co-accused Paul Black was cleared of murder, but found guilty of covering up the crime by helping dump the body more than 100 miles away.
