In a court hearing regarding the murder of Brian Low, David Campbell, the 77-year-old suspect, admitted to jurors that he and the victim did not have a good relationship. Campbell stated, 'We just didn't get on. He didn't like me and I didn't like him.' This admission has been presented by prosecutors as a potential motive in the alleged shooting that took place on 16 February 2024, in a remote area near Aberfeldy, Perthshire.

Prosecutors have accused Campbell of gunning down Low, a former colleague, after a documented history of dislike between the two men. As evidence unfolds, Campbell maintains his innocence, having pleaded not guilty to eight charges related to this incident. He has also presented a special defence of alibi, asserting he was at his home during the time of the alleged murder, which could significantly impact the prosecution's case.

The background of both individuals reveals a shared workplace history at the Edradynate Estate, where their professional paths crossed for many years. The ongoing trial raises questions about workplace relationships and potential underlying tensions that could escalate into violence, especially within remote communities where personal disputes can take on greater significance due to isolation and close-knit social ties.
