Peter Murrell Admits SNP Embezzlement
Peter Murrell, former SNP chief executive and Nicola Sturgeon's estranged husband, has admitted to embezzling over £400,000 from the party.
Court documents reveal he used party funds to purchase personal items, including a motorhome and a robotic lawnmower.
The Scottish National Party could boycott a Westminster probe into the scandal, with a senior SNP figure stating the party would not be obliged to participate.
This ongoing controversy has intensified calls for greater accountability within the party, with critics arguing that the SNP's refusal to order a review 'beggars belief.'
