Former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon says she is innocent after being arrested and held for more than seven hours as part of a police probe into the fate of funds for her pro-independence Scottish National Party.
The police investigation is looking at what happened to more than 600,000 pounds ($1.1 million) in funding raised by Scottish independence campaigners in 2017 which was supposed to have been ring-fenced, but may have been used for other purposes.
