:00:16. > :00:20.Tonight on Reporting Scotland: Police hunt a rapist who attacked
:00:20. > :00:23.two women in Glasgow early this morning. Tonight, we are live near
:00:23. > :00:32.the scene of the attacks where extra police officers are on patrol
:00:32. > :00:35.as women are warned to be on their guard.
:00:35. > :00:40.A photo has been released of the man they want to talk to. Stay with
:00:40. > :00:42.your friends. Very few people go out alone at night. Stay with your
:00:42. > :00:46.friends and make sure you all go home together.
:00:46. > :00:53.A man has been charged with assault after a teenager was removed from a
:00:53. > :00:56.train by another passenger. How a legal row has meant the
:00:56. > :00:58.bodies of an elderly couple have been left to the public mortuary
:00:58. > :01:01.for 10 years. And, creating an island in the
:01:01. > :01:09.Firth - the ingenious use of explosives in the construction of
:01:09. > :01:12.the new Forth crossing. Police are hunting for a man who
:01:12. > :01:15.raped one woman and carried out a serious sexual assault on another
:01:15. > :01:19.in the space of 15 minutes in Glasgow city centre in the early
:01:19. > :01:22.hours of this morning. The two women were on their way home from a
:01:22. > :01:28.night out when they were dragged from the street. Laura Bicker is on
:01:28. > :01:32.the street where both attacks took place.
:01:32. > :01:36.These were two women just on their way home after a great Christmas
:01:36. > :01:40.party. They chose this street, James Watt Street, to walk along.
:01:40. > :01:45.This is a main city-centre street which leads straight to the Clyde
:01:45. > :01:48.and the bridge over the Clyde. The first attack took place at 3:55am.
:01:48. > :01:53.The woman was approached by her attacker. He said a few words
:01:53. > :01:57.before dragging her of the street and raping her. The next attack
:01:57. > :02:01.took place just 15 minutes later. One woman was hospitalised. Both
:02:01. > :02:06.women are said to be traumatised. The night, police have launched a
:02:06. > :02:10.manhunt. This is the man police are hunting.
:02:10. > :02:16.He spent an hour prowling the city centre streets. He seems to be
:02:16. > :02:20.looking for something, or someone. He has been wondering about that
:02:20. > :02:24.area for quite a period of time. He is quite smartly dressed and looks
:02:24. > :02:28.like he has potentially come from a Christmas party or a night out, or
:02:28. > :02:32.been out with friends. The first victim was raped just before 4am.
:02:32. > :02:37.The 20-year-old had been on her way home from a night out. The next
:02:37. > :02:41.attack on a 22-year-old took place in the same street, just 15 minutes
:02:41. > :02:46.later. They are extremely distressed by what has happened to
:02:46. > :02:51.them, and that is why it is crucial that anyone with information comes
:02:51. > :02:54.forward to help us. As officers investigate, they are aware that
:02:54. > :02:58.people walk the streets every day and will be alarmed. Already we
:02:58. > :03:01.have additional officers within the city at this time of the year.
:03:01. > :03:06.However, tonight and in the coming days, we will increase that and
:03:06. > :03:09.have a significant number of police officers there. Officers have
:03:09. > :03:14.described these attacks as despicable. They say cat and the
:03:14. > :03:19.man responsible is now a matter of urgency. -- catching the man.
:03:19. > :03:24.Can you tell us any more about this man? Within the last few minutes,
:03:24. > :03:29.police have released CCTV images of the manner that they are looking to
:03:29. > :03:34.speak to. He is said to be around 20 to 30 years old. He is about 5
:03:34. > :03:38.ft 8 to five foot 10 inches in height. He was well dressed with a
:03:38. > :03:42.black, dark coloured Fitted shirt, dress trousers, and dress shoes.
:03:42. > :03:46.They say he looked as if he had been on a Christmas night out
:03:46. > :03:50.himself. They are keen to speak to him. If he looks like someone you
:03:50. > :03:54.know at home, they are urging you to pick up the phone and call them.
:03:54. > :03:57.They are also sending out a warning to women who might be out on the
:03:57. > :04:01.streets tonight after a night out, asking them to look after
:04:02. > :04:06.themselves, take public transport home if they can, or a taxi. They
:04:06. > :04:09.are asking them to stay with friends, stay close by and look
:04:09. > :04:12.after one another. There will be extra police on the streets, and as
:04:12. > :04:16.we are talking, there are two police officers on horseback
:04:16. > :04:20.patrolling the streets tonight. They are hoping that will keep
:04:20. > :04:23.people safe. Police have charged a man with
:04:23. > :04:27.assault after an alleged fare dodger was removed from a train by
:04:27. > :04:29.a passenger. Video of the incident, shot by another passenger on the
:04:29. > :04:39.Edinburgh to Perth service, has attracted nearly 2 million hits on
:04:39. > :04:41.
:04:41. > :04:46.YouTube. Catriona Renton reports. This is the mobile phone footage
:04:46. > :04:51.which has caused such a sensation on the internet. It shows a
:04:51. > :04:58.conductor and a teenager arguing over a train fare 12 days ago. Then,
:04:58. > :05:03.this man, 35-year-old Allen, intervenes. He removes the teenager
:05:03. > :05:12.from the train. He has since been dubbed "the Big man". Today, he was
:05:12. > :05:15.charged with assault. I think it is outrageous. He should have got a
:05:15. > :05:19.medal for that. I think he should have been charged with assault. He
:05:19. > :05:24.did physically assault the person, and he was not in a position of
:05:24. > :05:28.authority to take action like that. It seems fair enough. I think that
:05:28. > :05:35.is a bit harsh. To me, it sounded like if the guard on the train
:05:35. > :05:41.could not do his job, then somebody giving him a helping hand. Public
:05:41. > :05:44.opinion on the actions appear to be split. This is going to be a
:05:44. > :05:49.terrible Christmas for Mr Pollock and his family with this hanging
:05:49. > :05:53.over him. Clearly it is a case that has divided the country, polarised
:05:53. > :05:57.opinion. I just wonder in the circumstances whether he should
:05:57. > :06:00.actually be prosecuted, or whether the fiscal looking at this might
:06:00. > :06:07.just decide the public interest is best served by a warning letter,
:06:07. > :06:10.rather than a trial. Meanwhile, the student accused of fare dodging has
:06:10. > :06:16.also been reported to the procreative is God. No charges have
:06:16. > :06:19.been brought against him. Prosecutors will now decide whether
:06:19. > :06:22.either man will face further proceedings. BBC Scotland can
:06:22. > :06:26.reveal that the bodies of an elderly couple have lain in a
:06:26. > :06:29.public mortuary for the past 10 years, because of a legal wrangle.
:06:29. > :06:32.Edinburgh City Council says it has been unable to gain family consent
:06:32. > :06:41.to either bury or cremate the two bodies and, until they do so, they
:06:41. > :06:45.say their hands are tied. Kevin Keane has this exclusive report.
:06:45. > :06:54.Edinburgh's city mortuary, where corpses are brought for storage or
:06:54. > :06:58.investigation. For that past decade, this draw has held the body of a
:06:58. > :07:06.man who died of prostate cancer at the age of 91, alongside his wife
:07:06. > :07:10.who died a few years earlier. The stalemate stems from the next of
:07:10. > :07:20.kin's refusal to give consent for burial. In a statement, Edinburgh

:07:26. > :07:31.City Council, which runs at the How they were placed in the
:07:31. > :07:34.mortuary in 2002 is bizarre and leads back to this property, now a
:07:34. > :07:38.double glazing shop. They were found mummified in the basement
:07:38. > :07:42.here and, for years, were frequently visited by a son who had
:07:42. > :07:47.struggled to accept his parents' death. When they were discovered,
:07:47. > :07:51.the father had already been dead for eight years. The mother for 15.
:07:51. > :07:57.Both deaths had been registered under law after an initial police
:07:57. > :08:01.investigation into they find, no charges were brought. This law
:08:01. > :08:05.academic who specialises in mortality told me he believes the
:08:05. > :08:13.council does have the power to act. If no one else is dealing with it,
:08:13. > :08:18.the council have a right and a duty, a statutory duty, requiring them to
:08:18. > :08:24.attend to the proper disposal of the bodies in these cases. The
:08:24. > :08:27.family have no veto on that at all. It is not unusual for bodies to be
:08:27. > :08:31.stored for long periods, but it is generally if they can't be
:08:31. > :08:35.identified. That situation led to a high profile mixed up in England
:08:35. > :08:39.earlier this year when the body of Christopher Alder was found in a
:08:39. > :08:44.mortuary 10 years after his family thought they had buried him. The
:08:44. > :08:47.body of an unidentified woman had been released by mistake. We have
:08:47. > :08:51.tried to make contact with the next of kin, but so far without success.
:08:51. > :08:55.I understand though, that the council have been in regular
:08:55. > :08:59.communication with them as recently as this year. As a result of our
:08:59. > :09:08.story, they are planning to get in touch again in the hope of bringing
:09:08. > :09:13.to an end this long-running dispute. You're watching Reporting Scotland
:09:13. > :09:17.on the BBC. Still to come on the programme: An explosive start for
:09:17. > :09:24.work on the new Forth crossing. And, a fisherman gives doctors the

:09:49. > :09:53.bonanza for Scots firms. -- Forth crossing. It says it will support
:09:54. > :09:57.more than 1,200 jobs and pump millions of pounds into the economy.
:09:57. > :10:04.Our transport Correspondent David Miller reports.
:10:04. > :10:08.It is blast-off for work, new Forth crossing. This tiny island will
:10:08. > :10:13.provide the foundations for the bridge's central support tower.
:10:13. > :10:17.Workers also under way on the shores of the 4th. This is the
:10:17. > :10:22.biggest construction project in Scotland for a generation. But,
:10:22. > :10:26.until now, they have not been too much to see right here on the site
:10:26. > :10:31.of the new crossing. All that is set to change when the project
:10:31. > :10:36.steps up a gear in 2012. The project has been controversial from
:10:36. > :10:43.the start, but ministers insist there will be huge economic
:10:43. > :10:48.benefits. Jobs, jobs, jobs. They have allocated �20 million of sub-
:10:48. > :10:52.contracts to 118 Scottish companies and there are 1 34 sub-contracts
:10:52. > :10:55.now being advertised on top of that. So, there are real opportunities
:10:55. > :11:01.for all types of businesses in Scotland to bid for this work.
:11:01. > :11:06.total cost of the projects could be as high as �1.6 billion. Bosses say
:11:06. > :11:11.for once Scottish taxpayers can have confidence when they hear the
:11:11. > :11:16.phrase on time and on budget. will deliver a state-of-the-art
:11:16. > :11:22.product, a state-of-the-art structure. At the end of the day,
:11:22. > :11:27.in terms of immediate delivery, we will deliver jobs and opportunity
:11:27. > :11:31.to people. But, this is a bridge too far, according to campaigners,
:11:31. > :11:35.who say the new crossing will come at a huge crossed to the
:11:35. > :11:38.environment. As far as we are concerned, this is a second Forth
:11:38. > :11:43.road bridge, an additional Bridge. We already have one, and it looks
:11:43. > :11:48.as if it could be repaired. The new bridge will open in 2016, so in
:11:48. > :11:53.just a few years' time the 19th century rail bridge and the 20th
:11:53. > :11:56.century road bridge will be joined by a new crossing for the 21st
:11:56. > :11:58.century. Despite widespread cuts to many
:11:58. > :12:03.public services, universities are about to receive a bumper
:12:03. > :12:06.settlement from the public purse of over �1 billion. But there are
:12:06. > :12:08.strings attached. Scotland's higher education institutions are being
:12:08. > :12:12.told to accept more students from less well-off backgrounds, and do
:12:12. > :12:22.more to turn their research into business and jobs. Here's our
:12:22. > :12:23.
:12:23. > :12:29.education correspondent. Students across Scotland took to
:12:29. > :12:32.the streets to protest about cuts. Today, good news - the universities
:12:32. > :12:37.but it is a back-up to at �1 billion. But the keepers of the
:12:37. > :12:40.public purse won't -- want changes in return. Anybody from any
:12:40. > :12:44.background in Scotland should be able to study at university if they
:12:44. > :12:47.wish to do so. Secondly, if they want to have courses that are
:12:47. > :12:52.provided that allow people to study when they want and where they want.
:12:52. > :12:56.So, they want universities to accept more students from less
:12:56. > :13:02.well-off backgrounds, of more part- time and fast-track degrees, and
:13:02. > :13:06.become more efficient. But, for colleges across Scotland, funding
:13:06. > :13:15.is very different. Many are being forced to merge. Last week,
:13:15. > :13:20.students set out their concerns. main issue is the proposed cuts to
:13:20. > :13:30.disabled students' allowance. I think it is ridiculous. If they are
:13:30. > :13:31.
:13:31. > :13:36.going to merge colleges, we do need more funding. Student leaders are
:13:36. > :13:40.welcome the money for universities, but worry about colleges.
:13:40. > :13:43.Government are proposing a 20% cut over the next few years, but we
:13:43. > :13:47.have already seen a 10% cut last year. We are worried about what
:13:47. > :13:51.that will mean in terms of the number of places and opportunities.
:13:51. > :13:54.Universities are to have more money partly because, it is hoped, more
:13:54. > :13:59.of their world-class research will turn into businesses and jobs for
:13:59. > :14:02.Scotland. But does the deal come at a potential price, freedom? This
:14:02. > :14:06.Scottish government body says it does not want to take more control
:14:06. > :14:11.over the universities. They will continue to enjoy academic freedom.
:14:11. > :14:17.But, in return for handing over �1 billion of public money, it wants
:14:17. > :14:21.them to focus on key government goals. In the end, in these tough
:14:21. > :14:29.times, today's deal means more students and staff feeling more

:15:06. > :15:12.to be made very soon. Our correspondent has been following
:15:12. > :15:19.the story. How significant a development is this? Potentially,
:15:19. > :15:23.it is a very significant. The authorities have, for a long time,
:15:23. > :15:27.believed that there are answers to the Lockerbie bombing in Libya, but
:15:27. > :15:32.they have not been able to get access to Libya. That has all
:15:32. > :15:37.changed recently. They are hoping for corporation from the new Libyan
:15:37. > :15:47.government and that could see detectives in Libya, talking to
:15:47. > :15:56.witnesses and possibly suspects. It is now 23 years since the bombing,
:15:56. > :16:04.when it 270 people died. If detectives do get to Libya, they
:16:04. > :16:11.will be detectives from the Dumfries and Galloway force. Only
:16:11. > :16:16.one man has been convicted of the atrocity, Abdul Basset Ali Al
:16:16. > :16:21.Megrahi. It has been a very long process. When can be expected
:16:21. > :16:27.detectives to be on the ground in Libya? This is part diplomacy and
:16:27. > :16:36.part investigative work. The diplomacy part will happen in the
:16:36. > :16:40.new year when it this letter of request will be sent to Libya.

:20:12. > :20:15.Are you an uppie or a doonie, David?
:20:15. > :20:18.It's the end of an era for Scottish Rugby. The country's most capped
:20:18. > :20:21.player and record points scorer is retiring from the international
:20:21. > :20:23.game. Chris Paterson can bask in the praise of, among others, the
:20:23. > :20:33.national coach Andy Robinson who describes him as one of our
:20:33. > :20:37.greatest players. Here's our rugby reporter Jim Mason.
:20:37. > :20:44.It was fitting that Chris Paterson announced his retiral at
:20:44. > :20:50.Murrayfield, the scene of some of his greatest triumphs. This is
:20:50. > :20:57.Paterson. Press may have been a light weight when it came to size,
:20:57. > :21:06.but he was a big player for his country. Why retire now? My thought
:21:06. > :21:11.was to retire after the World Cup. That last game in Auckland was
