“Coyle is an abusive, sexual predator who will now face the consequences of his despicable actions,” Detective Inspector Peter Baxter said.
He added: “We recognise how challenging these investigations can be for those who have experienced abuse and I hope this result offers some form of closure to those affected by his behaviour.
“Police Scotland is committed to fully investigating all reports of sexual violence - no matter who the perpetrator is or how much time has passed.
“We have specially trained officers to support victims and work with partner agencies to ensure those responsible are brought to justice.”
Coyle is expected to be sentenced next month.
