Shropshire man in court accused of three murders

A 59-year-old Shropshire man appeared in court today accused of killing three men in the county 17 years ago.

Robin Stanislaw Ligus, originally from Shrewsbury, was charged in September last year with the murders of Bernard Czyzewska, Trevor Bradley and Brian Coles following a cold case review of their deaths.

The trial at Birmingham Crown Court is expected to last for several weeks.
