    Peter Murrell jailed for more than five years for embezzling SNP funds

    Murrell was first arrested in April 2023, a few weeks after resigning due to a row about membership figures.

    The Glasgow home he shared with Sturgeon was searched as part of the police operation, as was the SNP headquarters in Edinburgh.

    Murrell’s largest single purchase, in 2020, was a £124,550 luxury motorhome, paid for entirely with party funds.

    When it was seized by police three years later, it had only ever been driven four miles.

    Murrell used party funds to buy further items including a £3,223 coffee machine, a £3,000 robotic lawn mower, £2,600 salt and pepper grinders and a £425 gold pendant that Sturgeon was photographed wearing.

    The illicit purchases also included games consoles, a £100 chopstick set, £100 men’s loafers and £2.50 hand cream.

    Sturgeon has said she was not aware that Murrell had purchased many of the high-value items listed in court documents.

    The former first minister added that she had no reason to believe that Murrell had not used his own money for any items he bought for her.
