Police are appealing for assistance from the public to trace the next of kin of a man who died at Royal Bolton Hospital. Scott Brian Robinson died at the hospital on Minerva Road on May 6 of this year. Appealing for information about Mr Martin in the post on social media this week, GMP Bolton said there are not thought to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of the 46-year-old.

In UK law, there is no definition of next of kin, but it is understood to be the closest relative, whether a partner, parent, child or sibling. Anyone with information about the next of kin of Mr Robinson is asked to contact Bolton's Police Coroner's Office on 0161 856 2300. This article was written by Jack Tooth.
