In an update, Police Scotland say they are now trying to trace two men who may be able to assist officers with their inquiries.

The pair were seen in the area around the time of the fire before the dramatic blaze took hold.

‘Inquiries to establish the exact cause of the fire remain ongoing’

A spokesman for the force said: “Officers are keen to trace two men who were seen in the area around the time of the fire and may have information which could assist the investigation.”

Police sealed off industrial units at Market Mews.

The first man is described as having short and curly dark hair, wearing a black sleeveless body warmer.

The second is believed to be no older than 19 years old, and is described as being of thin build. He was wearing a cream-coloured tracksuit.

The spokesman added: “Anyone with information is urged to contact police on 101, quoting incident 3437 of 20 September.”
