Rutherglen: A woman is set to stand trial for the murder of Ann Coll, a well-loved grandmother. Claire Kilduff, 38, is accused of killing Ann at her flat in December 2023.

Reports say Kilduff struck Ann multiple times with an unknown object and stabbed her with something sharp. She’s also accused of transferring money from Ann’s bank account to her own and taking her mobile phone.

The case was heard at the High Court in Glasgow, where Kilduff pleaded not guilty. A trial is scheduled for October 2025.

Ann was found with serious injuries just before Christmas and sadly passed away at the scene. She was known in the community as a loving mother and grandmother.
