Detectives say they are 'determined' find Glasgow man Darren Birt's killer, 20 years after his brutal murder.
Darren was 22 when he was killed in Barlanark on August 27, 2002.
His killer was never brought to justice, and now Police Scotland have announced they are reinvestigating the case.
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.
On the night of his death, Darren was at a gathering in Burnmouth Road when an altercation broke out and spilled out on to the street.
His body was found in Calvay Place the following morning.
Darren sustained serious injuries to his body and was taken by ambulance to Glasgow Royal Infirmary.
He died a short time later.
Detective Inspector Watters added: "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.”
