A woman will stand trial later this year charged with the murder of a ‘loving’ grandmother.
Claire Kilduff, 38, is accused of killing Ann Coll at a flat in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire on December 21 or 22 2023.
It is claimed Kilduff repeatedly struck the 61-year-old with an “unknown implement or implements” as well as stab her with something “sharp”.
Kilduff is separately alleged to have transferred £320 from the woman’s bank account into her own and also taken a mobile phone.
Among other accusations are that she attempted to defeat the ends of justice.
The case called for a hearing at the High Court in Glasgow on Wednesday where Kilduff’s legal team pleaded not guilty on her behalf.
Lord Matthews set a trial scheduled to take place in October 2025.
