Prostitute attacker awaits fate

A former oil worker who admitted attacking a prostitute as part of a bid to rid the streets of drugs will have to wait to learn his fate.

Graham Caie, 31, took Sharline Wright to an Aberdeen golf course before repeatedly striking her with a pole and dumping her from his car in 2007.

Caie believed himself to be the leader of "an elite band of vigilantes".

Sentencing had been due at the High Court in Edinburgh. The case will call again next week.
