Former Scottish National Party chief Peter Murrell jailed for embezzling party funds

Peter Murrell was jailed for over five years after admitting to embezzling more than £400,000 of Scottish National Party funds to buy cars, a motorhome, and luxury goods. He is the estranged husband of Nicola Sturgeon, who resigned in 2023 before being arrested in the probe into the party’s finances and was later cleared of wrongdoing.
