A man has gone on trial accused of threatening to kill his teenage lover and dump her body in a school bin.
Peter Reid, 21, is accused of stalking two young women and carrying out a campaign of abuse against them.
Prosecutors allege he intentionally shut a door on the fingers of a former girlfriend after throwing her clothes into the street – leaving her stranded outside in just her underwear.
Reid is also said to have threatened to murder the girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, and then dump her body in a bin at the school across the road from his house in Aberdeen.
Another one of his alleged victims is said to have been pushed into a bath of hot water, denied access to food, and refused access to a toilet.
He is also facing charges of having sex with a 15-year-old and making her look at an image of a sexual nature.
Reid, who denies the charges, went on trial in front of a jury at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday.
During the first day of evidence, the alleged victim who claims she was threatened with murder, gave evidence.
The 19-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told the court she had been in a relationship with Reid from November 2013 to the spring of 2014.
She said although the relationship had started off well, things had quickly soured and they regularly argued, as she found him “controlling and obsessive”.
The court heard that one of the rows had been sparked because Reid knew the girl had been unfaithful to him during their time together.
She said: “He said to me that he thought about murdering me and putting me in the Sunnybank Primary School bins.
“He stayed directly across the road from the school. I felt worried and scared.”
During cross examination, defence agent David Moggach QC, accused the woman of making up the alleged events, as a result of Reid later breaking off the relationship.
She said: “No. It really did happen.”
Reid is accused of two counts of engaging in the course of conduct likely to cause a reasonable person fear or alarm, between March 2013 and March 2015.
The alleged offences are said to have happened at addresses in Aberdeen, Aviemore and elsewhere in Scotland.
The trial, before Sheriff Annella Cowan, continues.
