Two killers guilty of murdering a man more than six years ago are appealing their conviction. ‌

Raymond Platt , 56, and Joseph McCulloch, 50, were convicted earlier this month of being involved in the fatal attack on Tony Ferns on April 18 2019. ‌

The 33 year-old was stabbed in the heart as he sat in his car near his mother's home in Thornliebank, East Renfrewshire. ‌

Platt - already a convicted killer - was jailed for a minimum 23 years following the trial at the High Court in Glasgow.
