Scotland’s media reports Nicola Sturgeon cleared in SNP embezzlement case after almost two years under the spotlight. The media has reacted to the news – with the story dominating much of the Scottish newspapers and websites this morning.
Sturgeon along with the SNP’s former treasurer have been cleared in the probe. But Sturgeon’s husband, with whom she is now separated, is in court facing charges of embezzlement. Peter Murrell had been the SNP’s chief executive since 1999 but resigned in March 2023 amid a row over party numbers.
