Nat Fraser was jailed in 2003 for his wife Arlene’s murder Judges at the Supreme Court will deliver their verdict on a bid by wife killer Nat Fraser to clear his name.
The Elgin businessman was convicted in 2003 of the murder of Arlene Fraser who disappeared in 1998, but her body has never been found.
When Fraser exhausted the appeal process in Scotland he turned to Supreme Court judges in London to overturn his conviction.
He will find out on Wednesday morning if he has been successful.
Fraser, who was jailed for a minimum of 25 years, claims he was denied a fair trial because the Crown failed to disclose a vital piece of evidence about 33-year-old Mrs Fraser’s rings.
Judges heard the appeal over two days in March.
Their verdict will be announced at 0950 BST.
If he is successful and if the Crown decides not to remand him pending a new trial, Fraser could be released within hours.
If not, he could consider a further legal challenge in the European Court of Human Rights.
