A doctor previously accused of killing one of her friends has walked free from court after admitting drugs offences.

Katy McAllister had pled guilty to supplying a fellow medic with a quantity of diazepam pills.

The 31-year-old also gave tablets, including Temazepam, to another man as well as having so-called magic mushrooms.

McAllister was initially held following a probe into the death of her friend Louise McGowan in May 2015.

The doctor, employed by NHS Tayside, had been accused of the culpable homicide of the 27-year-old.

It is alleged at two addresses in Dundee, including a tattoo parlour, she "recklessly and unlawfully" supplied "controlled and potentially lethal drugs".

But, a during a trial in Edinburgh in May, McAllister's legal team argued there was insufficient evidence to the accusation.

Judge Graham Buchanan QC then threw out the culpable homicide accusation before McAllister pled guilty to the drug crimes.

On Tuesday, the doctor was sentenced at the High Court in Glasgow.

Judge Buchanan ordered her to carry out 150 hours of unpaid work within nine months.
