Sex attacker oil boss​ facing long prison sentence

An oil boss is facing a “significant custodial sentence” after being found guilty of sexually assaulting and attempting to rape a woman in Aberdeen.

Andrew Murray had been on trial at the High Court in the city accused of attacking the woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, while she slept.

The 51-year-old denied the charges.

The incident took place following an after-party at Murray’s second home at Union Grove in December 2018, after he had earlier attended an event at Pittodrie Stadium.
