:00:46. > :01:08.Prosecutors who want to bring a fresh trial against a man cleared
:01:09. > :01:11.of murdering a student more than two decades ago have begun
:01:12. > :01:15.The Crown Office wants to use recent double jeopardy legislation
:01:16. > :01:16.to secure a re-trial of Francis Auld.
:01:17. > :01:19.In 1992, he was acquitted of the murder of Amanda Duffy in
:01:20. > :01:32.Amanda Duffy had been returning home from a night out on May 30 1992. She
:01:33. > :01:36.was 19 years old when she was killed. Her badly beaten body was
:01:37. > :01:41.discovered near car park in Hamilton. Later that year,
:01:42. > :01:45.19-year-old Francis Auld was acquitted of her murder after a
:01:46. > :01:49.trial at the High Court in Glasgow. Almost 25 years later, her family
:01:50. > :01:56.were back in court. Prosecutors have made an application for a retrial
:01:57. > :02:01.using double jeopardy legislation. We cannot report the detail of the
:02:02. > :02:05.case for legal reasons. The grounds to make an application using double
:02:06. > :02:09.jeopardy legislation are strict, prosecutors must show that
:02:10. > :02:14.compelling new evidence has come to light. It is only the third time an
:02:15. > :02:19.application has been made using this legislation. In November 2014, Angus
:02:20. > :02:24.Sinclair was convicted of the murder of two women he had met at a pub in
:02:25. > :02:31.1977. And a man is due to stand trial later this year for the murder
:02:32. > :02:36.of a waiter in 1998. Over the next two days, judges will consider the
:02:37. > :02:38.evidence the prosecution says has emerged. Only then will they decide
:02:39. > :02:42.if there are grounds for a retrial. Andy Murray says tennis needs to do
:02:43. > :02:45."a better job" of warning upcoming players about the dangers
:02:46. > :02:48.of match-fixing. The world number two says he has
:02:49. > :02:52.never been approached to fix games or matches but he's urging
:02:53. > :02:54.the sport's authorities to do more The revelations have overshadowed
:02:55. > :02:59.the start of the Australian Open. In the early hours of this morning,
:03:00. > :03:01.though, Andy Murray won From Melbourne, here's
:03:02. > :03:14.Kheredine Idessane. With all the talk about match fixing
:03:15. > :03:18.in tennis, the one sure bet today was that Andy Murray would have some
:03:19. > :03:25.strong views to share. He wants fans to be able to trust what they are
:03:26. > :03:31.watching is genuine. I think it's happening at all levels of tennis,
:03:32. > :03:34.you hope that it's not extremely widespread, I don't know what
:03:35. > :03:41.widespread means, how many matches that means or not, but one is too
:03:42. > :03:46.many. Although it is a negative story, it is good because it makes
:03:47. > :03:54.tennis have to do more and do something about it. Hopefully things
:03:55. > :03:58.will improve. I can assure you on behalf of tennis, all of the
:03:59. > :04:04.governing bodies, it is their sole interest to be on top of this and
:04:05. > :04:08.the integrity of the game is paramount for our business. We are
:04:09. > :04:13.where it is there, it is on an incredibly small level. It is our
:04:14. > :04:19.business going forward to keep acting upon this in the best way. On
:04:20. > :04:23.court, one thing seems clear, Andy Murray is already in the mood in
:04:24. > :04:30.Melbourne. Playing at this rarefied level can often induce metaphorical
:04:31. > :04:35.nosebleeds, Alexander Zverev but a real one early on and he never
:04:36. > :04:39.recovered his composure. The bounce double bamboozling him somewhat.
:04:40. > :04:43.After winning the first set 6-1, Murray came up with the shot of the
:04:44. > :04:48.match early in the second and that set the tone for the rest of the set
:04:49. > :04:56.which he claimed 6-2. He supplied answers to every question, taking
:04:57. > :05:01.the final set 6-3 and was not detained much over two hours, ideal
:05:02. > :05:04.in the hot sun. After the headlines made by the match fixing
:05:05. > :05:10.investigation, Andy Murray made sure people left talking about the
:05:11. > :05:15.quality of his tennis, and also his next match, a potential cracker in

:06:22. > :06:24.one, but these figures There are three main figures
:06:25. > :06:30.we have to look at here. First, the government target
:06:31. > :06:32.for treating patients in Accident It says 95% of all patients
:06:33. > :06:40.attending A should be seen, treated and admitted
:06:41. > :06:47.or discharged within four hours. In the first week after
:06:48. > :06:49.the Christmas holidays the actual But as you say, the figure
:06:50. > :06:55.at the new Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow,
:06:56. > :06:59.known as the "Bizzie Lizzie", was just 75.9%, its worst
:07:00. > :07:01.performance ever. The other Glasgow hospital,
:07:02. > :07:03.the Royal Infirmary, Well, the Christmas period is always
:07:04. > :07:13.busy, with patients presenting perhaps with worse symptoms
:07:14. > :07:16.because they haven't been able to go to their GP, although overall
:07:17. > :07:19.numbers going to A were about the same
:07:20. > :07:24.as any other month. The government says it's difficult
:07:25. > :07:28.to take individual weeks in isolation and points out there's
:07:29. > :07:30.been a significant improvement But ministers will be concerned
:07:31. > :07:40.at the Glasgow performance, especially as they put in experts
:07:41. > :07:46.last summer to the new super hospital to improve management
:07:47. > :07:50.practices after its A department replaced those of three
:07:51. > :07:57.separate hospitals. Police investigating the murder
:07:58. > :08:00.of a Fife grandmother say they don't believe she left her home
:08:01. > :08:03.on the day she died. Mary Logie was killed a fortnight
:08:04. > :08:08.ago in her home in Leven. Police say she was still in her
:08:09. > :08:10.nightwear when her body was discovered, after she'd missed
:08:11. > :08:12.a number of appointments They're asking for anyone concerned
:08:13. > :08:17.about a friend or relative who was acting suspiciously that day
:08:18. > :08:22.to get in touch with them. A Labour party report
:08:23. > :08:24.into its defeat at the general election last year has admitted
:08:25. > :08:26.the party's current problems in Scotland amount
:08:27. > :08:30.to a huge challenge. The document, by the former Labour
:08:31. > :08:34.minister Dame Margaret Beckett, concedes the party's result last May
:08:35. > :08:38.in Scotland was "disastrous". She's called for the Scottish party
:08:39. > :08:40.to develop more distinct policies Labour lost 40 of its 41 seats
:08:41. > :08:47.at the last general election, including the one held

:08:53. > :08:54.in the independence referendum has been fined for failing to provide
:08:55. > :08:57.a full and complete report The elections watchdog,
:08:58. > :09:02.the Electoral Commission, has imposed a ?2000 penalty
:09:03. > :09:07.because the campaign did not provide receipts or invoices for ?57,000
:09:08. > :09:10.worth of expenditure. The fine has been paid
:09:11. > :09:13.and the commission says it accepts The right for Scottish juries
:09:14. > :09:21.to return a "not proven" verdict in criminal trials is
:09:22. > :09:23.a distinguishing feature But it's long been controversial,
:09:24. > :09:26.dividing those in the legal Now a Labour MSP is seeking
:09:27. > :09:33.to change the law to abolish it, and a Holyrood committee
:09:34. > :09:35.is looking into that. But the government says
:09:36. > :09:48.it's not yet convinced. For centuries, justice has been
:09:49. > :09:53.meted out here in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town. Tilting and
:09:54. > :09:59.not guilty at echoed in the courtrooms. So has not proven. --
:10:00. > :10:06.guilty and not guilty. It has been under pressure up for years and one
:10:07. > :10:09.MSP wants a change. I think not proven actually suggests there may
:10:10. > :10:12.have been some evidence that they have done it but not enough to
:10:13. > :10:16.convicted and I don't believe that is what a trial is there to achieve,
:10:17. > :10:21.it is there to look at the evidence and arrived at a conclusion of guilt
:10:22. > :10:26.or not. There have been high profile cases where families of victims not
:10:27. > :10:32.proven has left them with no sense of justice. The verdict is said to
:10:33. > :10:36.be confusing juror 's. There are 15 on eight Scottish jury. At the
:10:37. > :10:40.moment you need at least eight for a gilded verdict. Michael McMahon
:10:41. > :10:47.wants to increase that to ten if not proven is abolished -- guilty
:10:48. > :10:56.verdict. Some groups argue against it. The Justice Secretary is
:10:57. > :10:59.listening to the arguments. I'm not upset that -- unsympathetic to a
:11:00. > :11:04.form and that is why we are undertaking the research but I'm
:11:05. > :11:10.mindful of the fundamental nature that these areas have within our
:11:11. > :11:15.criminal justice system and prior to undertaking any changes, I think it
:11:16. > :11:20.is prudent and responsible to make sure we clear about the evidence
:11:21. > :11:25.base. The wheels of justice turn slowly, as they do in politics.
:11:26. > :11:27.There are only a few weeks left in this parliamentary session before
:11:28. > :11:33.the Holyrood election so not much more can be done. Lawyers have
:11:34. > :11:35.argued about this for years so no doubt MSP 's will continue to debate
:11:36. > :11:39.it further in the next Parliament. Tonight, the Celtic Connections
:11:40. > :11:41.festival will celebrate the true stories of more than 100,000
:11:42. > :11:43.children sent from Scotland to Canada, Australia and other

:11:58. > :12:15.Pauline McLean reports. The subject of immigration has
:12:16. > :12:23.always been a rich seam for traditional music. There are a few
:12:24. > :12:28.songs about the children sent off to Canada, Australia and other
:12:29. > :12:31.Commonwealth countries as part of mass migration programmes. A lot of
:12:32. > :12:40.great folk music comes from families, like the fishes or the
:12:41. > :12:45.Stewarts or the coppers. These children had no families and not
:12:46. > :12:49.only that, a lot were orphans and when they left, there was nobody to
:12:50. > :12:55.miss them and nobody to sing about them. 7000 children went from this
:12:56. > :13:00.one village set up in the 19th century by a Scots shoemaker. He was
:13:01. > :13:04.one of the first to sign up to be migration programme believing he had
:13:05. > :13:09.offered a new life to children who had nothing. He gave them a choice,
:13:10. > :13:13.they did not have to go. There was a migration officer that came over
:13:14. > :13:20.from Canada to tell them about life there and actually he treated them
:13:21. > :13:25.out with all the worldly goods, a trunk and suits and warm clothing
:13:26. > :13:29.for their new life in Canada. The ages of the children range from
:13:30. > :13:34.three months to 17 when they leave to take up various occupations. Why
:13:35. > :13:39.the nineteen fifties, Quarriers no longer sent off and abroad but other
:13:40. > :13:44.charities did and often they were not orphans. Yvonne was just nine
:13:45. > :13:49.months old when she arrived at Nazareth house and ten when she was
:13:50. > :13:51.sent to Australia. It was 30 years before she learned her mother and
:13:52. > :13:58.five siblings were still in Scotland. At that age you do what
:13:59. > :14:02.the nuns tell you. It was something different, we were going on a
:14:03. > :14:06.holiday, we thought. We had never heard of Australia, we had never
:14:07. > :14:11.been out of Glasgow. They didn't tell you you weren't coming back.
:14:12. > :14:14.The concert tonight along with an exhibition in London at last gives
:14:15. > :14:19.voice to those children's stories. A look at other stories

:16:41. > :16:42.strict liability laws to deal with sectarian singing
:16:43. > :16:44.at football grounds. That was the message from one SPFL
:16:45. > :16:47.board member today after a meeting But clubs say there is an appetite
:16:48. > :16:51.to deal with the problem, as well as the increasing use

:16:55. > :17:03.reporter, Chris McLaughlin. The fist all-club meeting of the new
:17:04. > :17:09.year. On the agenda - an age-old problem. -- first. Reports of
:17:10. > :17:13.sectarian singing are on the increase, like this at a recent
:17:14. > :17:19.match between Rangers and Hibs. As are the use of flares and smoke
:17:20. > :17:22.bombs. In other countries, clubs are held accountability by something
:17:23. > :17:27.called strict liability. A zero-tolerance approach to unruly
:17:28. > :17:34.behaviour. I think there's no chance whatsoever to the clubs agreeing to
:17:35. > :17:39.strict liability. Should clubs whose fans sing sectarian songs be
:17:40. > :17:43.punished? Should clubs who don't take every reasonable step to
:17:44. > :17:48.improve the experience for all of their fans ensure that inappropriate
:17:49. > :17:57.behaviour takes place be punished, absolutely.
:17:58. > :18:12.Help could come from holy Road, financial assistance, crowd facial
:18:13. > :18:18.recognition technology. One director has his own idea. Ultimately, if you
:18:19. > :18:21.you want the supporters to behave appropriately, you have to have the
:18:22. > :18:26.sanction of imposing a points penalty, I think. A tough
:18:27. > :18:28.punishment, but Tessa an issue many believe Scottish football has been
:18:29. > :18:35.too soft on for too long. Elsewhere, Hibs have completed
:18:36. > :18:37.the signing of the Celtic striker, Anthony Stokes, on loan
:18:38. > :18:40.until the end of the season. Dundee United and Inverness Caley
:18:41. > :18:42.Thistle were also keen Stokes was in the stands for Hibs'
:18:43. > :18:46.draw with Falkirk on Sunday, while the club finalised
:18:47. > :18:48.paperwork for the deal. His new head coach, Alan Stubbs,
:18:49. > :18:50.says he thinks the 27-year-old Celtic, minus Stokes,
:18:51. > :18:55.are in action tonight in the Premiership when
:18:56. > :18:57.they take on Hamilton. There are two fourth-round replays

:19:47. > :19:59.against England less Scotland's head coach striding
:20:00. > :20:06.towards this season's Six Nations campaign. Already controversy
:20:07. > :20:12.surrounding the 15th time capped Ryan Wilson. We made a decision with
:20:13. > :20:16.Ryan before he was cited. Ryan has been improving and we were happy
:20:17. > :20:19.with the way he has been improving, but we feel that other players are
:20:20. > :20:23.perhaps playing better than he is at the moment. Wilson will find out his
:20:24. > :20:31.fate at a hearing in London tomorrow. Was it the right call to
:20:32. > :20:35.leave him out of the squad? It is a surprise for the coach to suggest
:20:36. > :20:40.it's nothing to do with him being cited for ill legal foul play,
:20:41. > :20:45.whether it is or isn't I'm not entirely sure. It's the case he is
:20:46. > :20:52.out. In the squad there are two uncapped players in Zander Fagerson
:20:53. > :20:57.and Rory Sutherland. There is a return for Barclay, omitted from the
:20:58. > :21:01.World Cup squad this year. What should we expect from this squad and
:21:02. > :21:07.this year's six nations? We are careful about placing our
:21:08. > :21:10.expectations. What we do want to do internally a a group, I think there
:21:11. > :21:15.are certain things we can focus on to improve our game. . The Six
:21:16. > :21:19.Nations is about momentum. If you win your first game you can do very
:21:20. > :21:25.well. If you lose your first game a difficult trip to Cardiff. Then away
:21:26. > :21:28.to Rome. So a an awful lot rests on that first game against England.
:21:29. > :21:32.Last year's tournament was a disaster for Scotland. Played Fife,
:21:33. > :21:37.lost five. Reaching the quarter-finals of the World Cup has
:21:38. > :21:41.provided hope for a better 2016 campaign.
:21:42. > :21:42.Its back-to-back World Championship success for Scots bowler,
:21:43. > :21:46.Today, he won the Mixed Pairs Final with Katherine Rednall.
:21:47. > :21:48.The title comes just 24-hours after his Mens' Pairs victory
:21:49. > :21:53.Today's win was over the six-time World Champion,
:21:54. > :21:55.fellow Scot Alex Marshall and his partner Julie Forrest.
:21:56. > :21:57.Burnett is now chasing the singles title.
:21:58. > :22:09.He was asked what he was touching for success at Norfolk.
:22:10. > :22:16.I don't know, I'm going to try to keep touching it, that's for sure!
:22:17. > :22:19.It was a cracking game. Alex and Julie played fantastic. It could
:22:20. > :22:23.have been a different set. We could have been out of it to be perfectly
:22:24. > :22:27.honest and into the tie-break. You are playing the greatest player in
:22:28. > :22:31.the world, you can produce magic. I was delighted enough to play my last
:22:32. > :22:35.one. That's your Tuesday sport. Sally. Thank you very much.
:22:36. > :22:38.They were told to sit and wait for their men to come home.
:22:39. > :22:41.But this group of Scottish women ignored that suggestion and instead
:22:42. > :22:44.set up a network of hospitals all over Europe to tend to those
:22:45. > :22:48.More than a century on, an exhibition of unseen paintings
:22:49. > :22:50.by the late John Bellany depicting their work has now
:22:51. > :23:01.A body of work never shown before in public. Painted in 2009 by John
:23:02. > :23:05.Bellany. He had been seriously ill in hospital himself and died five
:23:06. > :23:09.years later. This collection has been kept by his family in private
:23:10. > :23:15.until now. He would be so pleased to see them on the walls here. Because
:23:16. > :23:17.he was totally inspired by the knowledge he gained when he was
:23:18. > :23:26.looking into the subject. He had no knowledge he gained when he was
:23:27. > :23:33.idea and he was in total awe of the courage and spirit of these Scottish
:23:34. > :23:37.women. In in the First World War the women were told to go homed and wait
:23:38. > :23:42.for their men to return. Undaunted and unpaid they put themselves in
:23:43. > :23:45.danger to help others, setting up hospitals in the front-line in
:23:46. > :23:51.France, rush why and Serbia where they are considered heroes. What we
:23:52. > :23:57.are doing in Scotland is catching up on our own history by recognising
:23:58. > :24:03.the wonderful work that was done by the women of Scotland. They showed
:24:04. > :24:08.compassion to the ill and dying in an era when it was not considered
:24:09. > :24:14.their place. The story of their work inspired other artists too. A new
:24:15. > :24:19.poem has been commissioned for this exhibition. The man from the War
:24:20. > :24:26.Office smiled at elsie, my good lady go homed and sit still. Did this
:24:27. > :24:31.make Elsie angry? If it did, it was grist to her mill. There are hopes
:24:32. > :24:37.the paintings will go on tour around Scotland later.
:24:38. > :24:39.Just before the weather, here's Shelley Joffre with details
:24:40. > :24:49.Tonight, NHS 24's IT fiasco that swallowed all the savings it was
:24:50. > :24:53.supposed to generate. We are examining the systematic failure
:24:54. > :24:57.that brought the trouble project ?50 million over budget. And, how did
:24:58. > :25:00.the opinion pollsters get it so badly wrong at the general election?
:25:01. > :25:05.Join me at 10.30pm over on BBC Two. Time for the forecast
:25:06. > :25:13.from Christopher. We start with pancakes tonight.
:25:14. > :25:16.Pancake ice. This is a picture from our Weather Watchers in the
:25:17. > :25:21.highland. It happens when you get low temperatures. Flat ice on the
:25:22. > :25:25.river is broken up and the motion of the water rounds the edges as the
:25:26. > :25:29.pieces bang together. Different type of ice in the forecast tonight. Met
:25:30. > :25:34.Office yellow be aware warning for untreated roads and surface. A few
:25:35. > :25:40.slippery areas around. It is largely dry over night. A few showers to the
:25:41. > :25:47.northern isles, around North Sea coasts, but it's largely dry. Cloudy
:25:48. > :25:52.and cold. Where the cloud breaks much colder, down to negative double
:25:53. > :25:57.digits in one or two spots. O cold start tomorrow. There will be
:25:58. > :26:00.patches of freezing fog around particularly to the Glens. The cloud
:26:01. > :26:05.should thin and break to reveal sunshine at times. An improving
:26:06. > :26:10.picture. Any sun won't do much for the temperatures, still on the low
:26:11. > :26:15.side, one to three Celsius. Towards the West Coast milder, five or six.
:26:16. > :26:24.Another cold, but dry day. Where we get the low temperatures this coming
:26:25. > :26:28.night tomorrow zero will be a struggle. A change is at foot. This
:26:29. > :26:33.is the pressure chart. High pressure dominates our weather at the moment,
:26:34. > :26:39.dry and settled. Out in the Atlantic weather fronts gathering, rain and
:26:40. > :26:44.wind. Much milder weather as well. Knocking on the door and coming our
:26:45. > :26:49.way by the end of the week. On Thursday we are in the cold regime.
:26:50. > :26:54.Cloudy in the west with one or two spots of rain. Best of the
:26:55. > :26:58.brightness to the far north and north-east. Friday, the weather
:26:59. > :27:01.fronts win out. The rain will arrive, the winds will be strong
:27:02. > :27:06.from the south. Look at the temperatures by mid afternoon we
:27:07. > :27:09.could be up to 10-11 Celsius across western parts of the country. That's
:27:10. > :27:15.the forecast for now. Thanks Christopher.
:27:16. > :27:16.Now, a reminder of tonight's main news.
:27:17. > :27:19.Prosecutors who want to bring a fresh trial against a man cleared
:27:20. > :27:21.of murdering a student, more than two decades ago,
:27:22. > :27:23.have begun presenting their case in court.
:27:24. > :27:25.The Crown Office wants to use recent Double Jeopardy legislation
:27:26. > :27:31.to secure a re-trial of Francis Auld.
:27:32. > :27:35.I'll be back with the headlines at 8.00pm and the late bulletin just
:27:36. > :27:38.Until then, from everyone on the team - right
:27:39. > :27:43.across the country - have a very good evening.
