Police Scotland’s Chief Constable Jo Farrell said in a broadcast interview she had a team of “very skilled” individuals working on the long-running case involving £600,000 in donations for independence campaigning.

Scotland’s most senior police officer has said detectives probing SNP party finances will report their findings to prosecutors “in a matter of weeks”.

Earlier this year the SNP’s former chief executive Peter Murrell, the husband of former first minister Nicola Sturgeon, was rearrested and charged in connection with embezzlement of party funds. Asked why the investigation, known as Operation Branchform, was taking so long Ms Farrell told Sky News: “It’s a live investigation, complex investigation, and the matter is being progressed and we expect the report to go to the Crown Office in a matter of weeks.”
