Singh, appearing via video link and reportedly covering his face and crying, maintains his innocence and plans to plead not guilty. Armstrong, 30, vanished in July; her car was found the next day, and her remains were discovered by pig hunters. Police say Singh set fire to a vehicle the day after her disappearance. Her family, including her infant son, attended court, with her sister saying her nephew fuels her daily strength. The Toowoomba community has rallied in grief, donating and leaving flowers at her home. Court has set a brief deadline for evidence by September 14, with the next hearing scheduled for October 1.
