All charges against the former Rangers oldco administrators have been dropped in the fraud trial they were facing.

David Whitehouse and Paul Clark were accused alongside former owner Craig Whyte, 44, ex-chief executive Charles Green, 62, and three other men over a number of allegations relating to their dealings with the club.

On Monday, prosecutors at the High Court in Edinburgh dropped all charges against the two Duff and Phelps employees.

The Crown dismissed charge three on the indictment against the pair, which accused them of not disclosing the identity of a "person engaged in money laundering".

The prosecution also deserted the other allegation they faced pro loco et tempore, meaning the procurator fiscal could return to it at a later date.

Whitehouse and Clark were accused in that charge of conspiring with Whyte, Green and former Rangers finance director Imran Ahmad to defraud the club’s creditors of funds and assets.

It was also alleged in this charge the pair allowed Whyte, Green and Ahmad to acquire the club at "significantly below the true market value".

The charge claimed Ahmad paid Clark and Whitehouse an exclusivity fee of £200,000 as the joint administrators of oldco Rangers.

It comes two weeks after the Crown dropped five charges against the former administrators of oldco Rangers, as well as some of the charges faced by Whyte, Green and David Grier in the multi-million-pound fraud case.

Whyte, Green, David Grier, Gary Withey, 51, and Ahmad still face a number of charges relating to their dealings with the club.
