Call to knock down 'house of horrors'
The flat, in a block of six in Royston Mains Place, Edinburgh, has remained empty since Cameron, 56, murdered his fiance there in December 2007. Cameron hid Heather's body for more than a year in the flat before he dismembered her.
The keys have been held by the procurator fiscal since the death was discovered, in case the jury needed to see the flat, but with the property now due to be handed back to the council neighbours have called for the whole block to be demolished.

Hide AdPhil Hubbard, 42, who lives in a flat directly opposite, said a fellow neighbour had been trying to sell in order to move, but gave up after the publicity surrounding the court case.
He said: "Knock it down, nobody in their right mind will ever take it".
A council spokesman said: "The property is still in the possession of the fiscal and, as with any council property, our future plans will be to re-let it."
