Man in court over A90 triple fatal crash tragedy.

A man appeared in court yesterday accused of causing the death of three people in a horrific road accident on the A90.

Marin Rachev was remanded in custody over the crash on the Aberdeen to Dundee road at Glenbervie, which occurred at around 4.30pm on Tuesday.

He faced a single charge of causing death by dangerous driving during a short hearing at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday.

A Citylink coach and two cars, a Renault Megane and Ford B Max, were involved in the crash.

The two men and one woman killed in the accident were passengers in the Renault Megane and are understood to be foreign nationals.

The car’s male driver and another female passenger were taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary for treatment.

The two occupants of the silver Ford B Max were a man and a woman and they were also taken to Aberdeen Royal infirmary. Their injuries were described as “not life threatening”.

Yesterday Rachev, 34, of no fixed abode, appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court facing one charge of causing death by dangerous driving on petition.

During a brief private hearing he made no plea and the case was continued for further examination.

He was remanded in custody pending a further hearing next week.
