Dad-of- two Alistair Wilson , 30 , was fatally shot in a gangland-style execution in 2004 .

He was shot at his home in the Scottish Highlands on 28 November 2004 .

Scotland 's top law officer, Lord Advocate Dorothy Bain KC , ordered a reinvestigation into the case.

A team of 14 officers are now working on Operation Sabine , with more expected to be drafted on.

Police Scotland will examine all evidence gathered over the past two decades .

Around 10,000 documents, including approximately 6,000 statements will be re-examined.

Mr Wilson 's family lodged an official complaint after being told a suspect would be arrested.

The breakthrough failed to materialise with a top detective later denying a date had been identified for the arrest.
