The background to this case is a family dispute.  The dispute is over where the body of Private Mark Connolly will be buried.   MC’s mother wishes to have him buried in Methil.  His widow wishes him to be buried in Forfar.  The dispute has now lasted three years.

This matter has reached court once again, this time Forfar Sheriff Court.  A newspaper report on the latest proceedings can be found here.
