Humza Yousaf’s brother-in-law has been arrested and charged following the death of a man in Dundee earlier this year.

Ramsay El-Nakla, 36, has been charged with abduction and extortion in a case linked to a man who died in hospital a week after falling from a window in a block of flats in Dundee on 10 January.

El-Nakla, the younger brother of Nadia El-Nakla, the first minister’s wife and Scottish National party councillor, is due to appear in Dundee sheriff court on Tuesday.

Three others, previously named as Jennifer Souter, 38, Stephen Stewart, 50, and Victoria McGowan, 41, have previously appeared in court in connection with the death.

Souter made no plea to the charge of culpable homicide and was remanded; Stewart and McGowan made no plea to charges of abduction and extortion and were released on bail.

Police Scotland said: “A 36-year-old man has been arrested and charged with abduction and extortion following an incident where a man fell from a block of flats on Morgan Street, Dundee, on Wednesday 10 January. He died a week later in hospital.

“Three others were previously arrested and charged following the same incident. The 36-year-old man is due to appear in Dundee sheriff court today, Tuesday 9 April 2024. A report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
