The body of student Dinah McNicol, 18, of Tillingham, Essex, was also found buried in the garden of the house in Margate, Kent, last week.

Peter Tobin had been due to appear at Linlithgow Sheriff Court in West Lothian on Friday charged with Vicky's murder.

But he was not fit enough to leave hospital after he was injured at Saughton prison, Edinburgh, on Wednesday and the hearing took place in his absence. Vicky's family did not attend.

A Crown Office spokesman said: "Peter Tobin has now been fully committed for trial on a charge of murdering Vicky Hamilton.

"No further court dates have been scheduled as yet."

Police said a 21-year-old man has been charged in connection with the prison incident.

Peter Lowton, Assistant Chief Constable of Essex Police, said: "Every inch of this property has been searched and forensically examined.

"Having completed this physical work, the house has now been boarded up and is being preserved pending the next phase of the investigation.

"The task now is to assess the evidence and build a case."
