A man is to stand trial accused of shooting a woman in an alleged murder bid.

The attempted murder charge states this was to her severe injury, permanent disfigurement and to the danger of her life.

Kashita faces two separate firearms charges as well as possession of cannabis.

Allan MacLeod, defending, pled not guilty on his behalf during a short hearing at the High Court in Glasgow on Friday.

Both the advocate and prosecutor Stewart Ronnie agreed a trial could be fixed.
