There is now a "broad expectation" at Holyrood that former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon will be questioned by police or even arrested in the coming days, a Scottish Tory politician has said. Murdo Fraser also believes the Scottish National Party (SNP) is facing "total collapse" as a result of fallout from the ongoing police probe into its finances. The SNP was plunged into crisis after the arrest of Peter Murrell, its former chief executive and Mrs Sturgeon's husband, on April 5, in connection with Operation Branchform, an investigation into possible fundraising fraud.
