Emma accused 'tried to strangle me in his van

A WOMAN recalled "running for her life" after allegedly being attacked in a van by the Emma Caldwell murder accused.

The witness told jurors she had been a sex worker in the early 2000s when she claimed to have been picked up by Iain Packer in Glasgow city centre.

She alleged being choked during the incident and it only coming to an end when a security guard shone a torch into the vehicle.

The woman fled and was stopped by police in the street - but she claimed they were not interested in helping her.
