Tobin's evil trail uncovered after Angelika's body was found in Glasgow church

HE WAS the drifter who changed his name, his accent, his postcode but never his appetite for violence.

- BY JANE HAMILTON

Peter Tobin was a man of many faces, all of them lies. To neighbours, he was a quiet handyman, a churchgoer, a dad.

To police, he became one of the most reviled serial killers in Scottish history - a predator who travelled the UK hiding in plain sight, leaving a trail of bodies behind him.

Tobin was born in Johnstone in 1946 and grew up in a large family. His criminal career began early with burglary, fraud and violence.

But it was what he kept hidden that would make him infamous. His public mask was one of jobs and marriages, three wives, all of whom described him as controlling and brutal.

Behind closed doors, he was a sadistic manipulator. And by the time he was finally caught, the true scale of his crimes was still only partly understood.

His downfall began in 2006, after the disappearance of 23-year-old Angelika Kluk in Glasgow. She was a bright, kind Polish student working at St Patrick's Church in Anderston where Tobin was helping out as a handyman.

Her body was found days later, buried under the church floorboards. She had been raped, beaten and stabbed. Tobin, using an alias, had already fled.

A nationwide manhunt led to his arrest in London. But Kluk's murder was just the start.
