On the evening of Tuesday, 27 August 2002, 22-year-old Darren (pictured below) was in Burnmouth Road at a gathering when an altercation broke out and spilled out onto the street.
In the early hours the following morning, around 1.30am on Wednesday, 28 August 2002, Darren was found lying in the roadway in Calvary Place with serious injuries to his body.
He was taken by ambulance to Glasgow Royal Infirmary but died a short time later.
Detective Inspector Lynsey Watters said: “Despite the passage of time, I am determined to find whoever is responsible for Darren’s murder and bring them to justice. It’s clear he was a much-loved son and brother and is deeply missed by his family.
We know that Darren was chased from Edinburgh Road down toward Burnett Road shortly before he was attacked, someone must have heard something.
“No case is ever closed in Scotland and I am convinced there are people out there who have information, vital to this investigation, who have failed to come forward.
“This may be down to fear or some misplaced loyalty to those responsible for this horrific crime, but please do the right thing and contact us, you can be assured your information will be treated in the utmost confidence.”
