THE CRIME CLAN -ONE OF THE DEADLIEST IN SCOTLAND - HAS BEEN LEFT REELING SINCE THE DOUBLE MURDER. 07:15, 03 Jun 2025Updated 13:46, 03 Jun 2025 The notorious Lyons crime clan are set to seek

bloody revenge following the brutal execution of two of their major players in a pub on the Costa del Sol, it is feared. Ross Monaghan, 43, and Eddie Lyons Jnr, 46, were among

Scotland's most high-profile underworld figures when they were gunned down at Monaghan's bar in Fuengirola on Saturday, May 31. The pair were watching the Champions League final

when a masked gunman fired multiple rounds at the pub at around 11.30pm, hitting both of them before escaping in a vehicle driven by an accomplice. The Lyons gang - one of the most deadly

happen in Spain than anywhere else. That is the fear." Pictures from the scene showed emergency services surrounding a body covered with a blanket, as shocked locals and tourists

watched on. The execution comes amidst a violent turf war that has been raging across Scotland since March. The Daniel and Lyons crime families have been linked to the fresh feud after a

series of assaults, shootings and firebombings across Glasgow and Edinburgh. Spanish detectives have yet to confirm if the double murder on the Costa del Sol is connected to the recent

violence, which has resulted in more than 30 arrests. The shooting on Saturday is the most significant gangland development since 2010 when Kevin "Gerbil" Carroll, an enforcer for

the Daniel clan, was shot dead in an Asda car park in Robroyston. Monaghan was tried for the killing, but was cleared in May 2012. In August 2017, both Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jnr were both

acquitted for involvement in a horror street attack outside a pub in Bishopbriggs, which left one of the three victims with their ear hanging off. The case fell apart after charges against

them were withdrawn after a court heard two days of evidence. JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community

believed he moved to Spain following the incident. An attempt on Eddie Jnr's life around 18 years ago saw Kevin Carroll ambush him in Bellshill. Earlier this year, violence erupted in

the capital after Dubai-based Mr Big - recently unmasked as former Rangers ultra and Union Bears boss Ross McGill - was ripped off in a £500,000 cocaine deal by caged kingpin Mark

Richardson's cronies when the buyers used fake bank notes. Ever since, gangster Mr Big has been targeting the homes, properties, businesses and vehicles of Richardson's associates,

including the Daniel clan. His enforcers, the faceless group known as Tamo Junto (TMJ) have carried out a series of terrifying fire bombings and other attacks. Despite reports of a truce

between the Daniel and Lyons families, the group have vowed to continue the turf war. Article continues below The Lyons clan were said to have been feeding McGill information about the

Daniel family, but boss Steven Lyons made the call to concentrate on his own interests.
