A landlord has been found guilty of being in possession of stolen goods, having accepted £40,000 worth of stolen whisky in lieu of a £1,400 rent payment.
Police investigating complaints that valuable whisky had been stolen from a storage vault in Grangemouth used by drinks giant Diageo discovered 57 bottles of rare malt hidden in the attic of Kenneth McLean’s home in Avonbridge, near Falkirk, following a tip off.
McLean, 48, was given a community sentence for possessing stolen goods after admitting reset, and was ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid work at Falkirk Sheriff Court.
