Sian murder accused arrives to angry scenes at court

There were angry scenes outside court today as taxi driver Christopher Halliwell arrived to face a charge of murdering nightclubber Sian O’Callaghan.

Two men had to be restrained as a van believed to be carrying Halliwell, 47, drove to Swindon Magistrates’ Court.

Miss O’Callaghan disappeared after leaving the Suju nightclub in Swindon a week last Saturday after a night out with girl friends.

Halliwell was arrested by Wiltshire Police on Thursday and charged on Saturday night with killing the 22-year-old PA from Swindon.
