Perth and Kinross Council's leader and the SNP administration has thrown its "full support" behind a councillor who "deeply regrets" liking a "deeply inappropriate" tweet.
The Conservative group's leader slammed the tweet's image - which showed a blindfolded woman gagged and being held down by a man - as "abhorrent and repulsive".
The SNP today confirmed councillor John Rebbeck - who has since unliked the post and apologised - will retain his role as a senior councillor.
