Nicola Sturgeon has issued a statement as she returned home following her arrest.

The former First Minister said “I’ve done nothing wrong” as she returned home for the first time following her arrest last Sunday.

She was questioned by police investigating the SNP’s finances and was released without charge on June 11 pending further investigation.

Glasgow Times:

Returning to her Glasgow home, she said: “I can’t say very much just now, what I will say is reiterate the statement I issued last Sunday, I’m certain that I have done nothing wrong.

“I intend to be back in Parliament in the early part of the week, I’ll make myself available for questions then.

“For now I intend to go home and catch up with some family.”

Glasgow Times:

Asked whether she had considered stepping back from the SNP, she said: “I’ve done nothing wrong and that is the only thing I’m going to assert today.”

She added: “I know I’m a public figure, I accept what comes with that, but I’m also a human being that’s entitled to a bit of privacy and my neighbours are also entitled to a bit of that as well.”

Asked whether conditions have been placed on her arrest, she told the media: “No and I’m not going to get into anything other than that.”

Glasgow Times:

When asked whether Nicola Sturgeon would have suspended Nicola Sturgeon, she said: “Look I’ve done nothing wrong, it’s for others to comment as they see fit but that’s my position.”

Ms Sturgeon then went into her house.
