Nicola Sturgeon's husband Peter Murrell arrested over SNP finances

Former SNP chief executive held in connection with an investigation into funding.


Nicola Sturgeon's husband Peter Murrell, the former Scottish National Party (SNP) chief executive, has been arrested following an investigation into the party's finances.

Detectives sealed off Mr Murrell's Glasgow home to search the property and have also visited the SNP's headquarters in Edinburgh.

Police Scotland said a 58-year-old man is being held in custody in connection with an investigation into the funding and finances of the party.

Eyewitnesses told The Telegraph that Ms Sturgeon was not at her property on the outskirts of Glasgow when police arrived on Wednesday morning. The former First Minister was seen leaving her home in a black coloured Volvo.

Six officers are standing guard outside the home which has been taped off by officers and an evidence tent has been erected in a front garden.
It comes as Police Scotland investigate the spending of about £600,000 which was earmarked for Scottish independence campaigning.

A police spokesperson said: "The man is in custody and is being questioned by Police Scotland detectives. Officers are also carrying out searches at a number of addresses as part of the investigation."

A report will be sent to the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service. The arrest comes after Ms Sturgeon's time as first minister formally came to an end last week, as she was succeeded by Humza Yousaf as SNP leader.

Mr Yousaf said he was committed to ensuring the SNP is transparent following Mr Murrell's arrest.

Paradoksalnie mamy nadzieję, że z tej tak dramatycznej sytuacji, w jakiej znalazła się Ukraina, społeczeństwo ukraińskie, poprzez fakt jak bardzo zacieśniły się związki pomiędzy naszymi narodami ,kiedy Polacy wyciągnęli rękę do swoich sąsiadów z Ukrainy, by im pomóc w tej trudnej sytuacji, że dzięki temu uda nam się także budować świetną przyszłość"- mówił Duda.
