    BUSINESSMEN APPEAR IN COURT By ALISON SHAW, Aberdeen Evening Express, UK
    A Building firm and three directors are facing criminal charges following the death of a workman.

    Riverside Construction and the three businessmen allegedly broke health and safety laws while renovating Aberdeen's fire-hit Poundstretcher building.

    Worker Erik Petersen, 34, was killed when the interior collapsed as work was being carried out the Union Street building. Now a criminal case has been brought to court and yesterday the three directors appeared in private before Sheriff Kenneth Stewart.
