The Alba Party chairwoman has said former first minister Alex Salmond got the send-off he deserved when his body was repatriated from North Macedonia to Scotland following a fatal heart attack on October 12.
In an interview with the BBC Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh spoke of the “shock” that was widely felt at Mr Salmond’s death, and said this reflected the extent to which he had been admired by all those he had spoken to.
