The family of an Angus man who was murdered three years ago has made a fresh appeal for witnesses.
Tony English was found stabbed to death in his Carnoustie flat in December 2011.
His killer has never been caught.
His brother, Damian, called on the community to help provide evidence for a conviction.
“It is three years since Tony was killed and it is two years since I was last contacted by the police in connection with his death,” he said.
“At that time, they told me inquiries were ongoing but nothing further has happened.
“For a while I kept calling them and asking for developments, but I stopped because they just kept telling me the same thing that inquiries were continuing.
“I want something to be done I want my brother’s killer caught.”
A man was charged with the murder, but was later freed by the Crown Office without appearing in court.
“The family is utterly sick and disgusted that no one has ever been caught,” Damian added.
“The police have told me they need more evidence and I am appealing to anyone who thinks they know anything about what happened to come forward.”
Police Scotland submitted a report to the procurator fiscal two years ago, and it is understood the circumstances of the case are reviewed on a yearly basis.
A Crown Office spokesman said: “There is insufficient evidence at this stage to take criminal proceedings in relation to this death.
“The Crown reserves the right to re-raise proceedings in future, should further evidence come to light, and we would be happy to meet with the family of the deceased to discuss the matter further.”
A police spokeswoman said: “Police Scotland can confirm that a report was submitted to the procurator fiscal in 2012.
“If anyone has further information regarding this crime, Police Scotland can be contacted on 101.
“Alternatively, information can be provided anonymously via the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.”
Mr English, who was 59, was found dead in his cottage in Kinloch Street on the morning of December 11 2011.
A full-scale police investigation was launched and dozens of officers took part in the operation to try to track down the killer.
Forensic detectives were also called in, while officers spoke to hundreds of locals in a bid to uncover information about the death.
There were more than 300 people interviewed by officers, who knocked on 165 doors in the town.
