Shetland News @shetnews

A thirty nine year old man charged with murder was fully committed for trial when he appeared in private at Lerwick Sheriff Court on Thursday.

Aren Pearson, whose address was given as Shetland, made no plea and was remanded in custody.

Pearson was arrested eleven days ago following the death of 24-year-old Claire Leveque in Sandness.
