Former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has returned home after being questioned for over seven hours as part of a police investigation into the SNP's finances. Sturgeon, who denies any wrongdoing, said she intends to be back in Parliament this week. Police Scotland have been investigating for the past two years what happened to more than £600,000 of donations given to the SNP by independence activists. Sturgeon announced on 15 February that she would be standing down as both SNP leader and first minister once a successor was elected, with Humza Yousaf winning the contest to replace her.
