The Police Investigations & Review Commissioner (Pirc) is investigating Police Scotland's actions in the lead-up to the death of Vikki Soloman, 44, who was allegedly murdered by her ex-partner in Edinburgh. Soloman was found with serious injuries at her home on Craigievar Square on July 20, 2026, and later pronounced dead. Lee Greenan, 46, was charged with her murder and appeared in court.
