Summary

Mr C complained about the Scottish Prison Service (SPS)'s handling of his property when he was transferred between prisons. He also complained that the SPS did not handle his complaint properly. Mr C was released from prison whilst we were investigating his complaint and he did not provide us with a forwarding address. We were unable to make contact with him despite several enquiries. Therefore, we closed his case in line with our procedures.
