The aftermath of the blaze “I am, of course, extremely relieved that everyone is safe. I would like to thank my wife and my family for their support and for the strength and courage they have shown during such a difficult time. “Naturally my family has been deeply affected by these events. This is a hugely challenging time but we will make sure we stay strong and we will get through this together." The Thortonhall property – six miles south of Celtic Park and bought by Lawwell for £2.5 million in 2010 – was locked down for much of yesterday as detectives probed the blaze.
