Four men have gone on trial accused of abducting and murdering a woman who vanished almost two years ago.

Lynda Spence has not been seen since leaving her parents' home in Glasgow on April 13, 2011.

Her parents, Patricia and James Spence, reported her missing to police a month later.

David Parker, 37, from West Kilbride, Paul Smith, 47, from Largs, Philip Wade, 42, from Glengarnock, all North Ayrshire, and Colin Coats, 42, from Glasgow, are accused of abducting, assaulting and murdering Ms Spence.
