Missing Spence 'set up two fake emails'

A missing businesswoman alleged to have been murdered may have created fake email addresses for two people she said were involved in one of her business deals, a court has heard.

Emails were sent from Lynda Spence's account to people claimed to be a Qatar-based "Uncle Ben" and a London-based "Adam Grange" copying in Colin Coats – one of the men accused of murdering her.

The High Court in Glasgow heard the address for Uncle Ben was set up using the internet connection at the Rio Cafe in Partick, Glasgow, which was known among her friends as "Lynda's Partick office".
