Sean Clerkin has urged Chief Constable Jo Farrell to comment on the long-running police investigation into SNP finances.

Humza Yousaf has refused to comment on the long-running investigation into SNP finances amid calls for police to provide an update on its progress.

Sturgeon and Murrell were also both separately interviewed by detectives for several hours last year before being released without charge.Questions have been since been asked over the cost and length of time Branchform has taken with as yet no report being submitted to the Procurator Fiscal. "I think it's important for me not to comment on a live police investigation. If I did so, if I answered your question, it could be seen as prejudicing an ongoing inquiry.

Sean Clerkin said Police Scotland Chief Constable Jo Farrell should provide an update on Operation Branchform at a public meeting this week.
