Alexander and Robert McKellar are due to appear at Glasgow's High Court today, accused of the murder of charity cyclist Tony Parsons cycling
Mr Parsons — who was 63 when he was reported missing while on a 104-mile charity bike ride from Fort William to his home in Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire, in September 2017 — was last seen at around 11.30pm on the evening of the 29th outside the Bridge of Orchy Hotel in Argyll and Bute.
It is alleged that after the collision on the A82, the brothers failed to seek medical attention, showing"wicked and reckless disregard" for the consequences. The body was then allegedly hidden under a tarpaulin in a wooded section, and that Mr Parsons died, with a grave dug on estate land and the body covered with animal remains and bleach before being buried.
Alexander will also face the additional charges of causing death by dangerous driving by driving at excessive speed during the hours of darkness when his ability to drive was impaired by alcohol, or an alternative charge of causing death by driving without due care or attention while unfit through drink or drugs.
