Annette wore a smart camel-coloured blazer and trousers for her court date but had to wait around two hours for the case to call because her co-accused had not turned up. Sheriff Colin Pettigrew issued a warrant for James Shearer's arrest after he and his lawyer no-showed due to an 'administrative error'. Annette — who left court alone and on foot — was excused from appearing in person at a legal hearing in April after her solicitor raised 'professional concerns' for her safety due to the ongoing gang feud.

The pair have been ordered to return to court to face the allegations later in the year.

Mum of Scots gangland boss misses second court appearance over safety fears
The mum of a Scots gangland boss has missed court for a second time amid an underground turf war. Annette Daniel, 63, – the mother of Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel – was due to appear in Glasgow Sheriff Court on Wednesday, charged with shoplifting. Court papers stated that Daniel stole clothes from The White Company in the city centre's Buchanan Street on October 12, 2023. Her lawyer, Darran Khorasan, told the trial hearing: 'There is a defence motion to adjourn for reasons you [the sheriff] are aware of that has been canvassed in advance.' There was no opposition to the adjournment from the Crown, and a new trial date was fixed for August. Daniel was also due to appear at the same court two weeks ago in relation to another shoplifting matter in House of Fraser. Daniel, of the city's Robroyston, did not attend amid fears to her safety as her house had recently been torched. Ross Jenkins, her lawyer in that case, said: 'There are professional concerns about Ms Daniel attending court. 'She is on standby to attend should your ladyship wish, but there are issues that you may be aware of.' The trial for this case was adjourned until July.
