And finally…blessed relief
A woman accused of urinating on one of American billionaire and presidential candidate Donald Trump’s golf courses have been dropped has had the charges against her dropped.
Rohan Beyts, 62, was charged under the Civic Government (Scotland) Act for allegedly urinating on Trump’s Aberdeenshire golf course at the Menie Estate last year.
She has said she is “relieved” that the case has been dropped - but will continue with her own civil claim against the golf course for breach of privacy and damages, alleging she was filmed and photographed by staff and reporters while using a public footpath to cross the course.
The committed environmentalist praised the “tremendous support I have received, including from people who have played the course”.
A spokesman for the Crown Office said: “Following a review of all facts and circumstances the case, including new evidence which has come to light, the procurator-fiscal instructed there be no proceedings.”
Yesterday we reported that the controversial tycoon has suffered £9 million loses across his two luxury Scottish golf resort businesses at Menie and Turnberry in Ayrshire.
