Rafal Lyko was found dead in a burned-out car in February 2019

A second man has appeared in court charged with the murder of a Polish national who was found dead in a burned-out car.

The body of Rafal Lyko, 36, was discovered in Greenhall Park, Blantyre, South Lanarkshire, on 11 February 2019.

The father-of-one travelled to Scotland from his native Poland two days before he was found dead.

Darren Owen, 22, made no plea when he appeared before Hamilton Sheriff Court.

Mr Owen, of Glasgow, was remanded in custody.

Earlier this month, Thomas Wilson made no plea when he appeared before the same court charged with murder.

The 25-year-old from Glasgow was released on bail.
