Police chiefs in Scotland are being urged to reveal if they faced political pressure to delay the arrest until after a replacement was found for the outgoing first minister, the Daily Telegraph reports. The paper quotes former MSP Alex Neil, who served as health secretary in Ms Sturgeon’s first government, as saying that Police Scotland should “make clear if they were asked in any way to delay the arrest and, if so, why they did so”. The Telegraph’s Scottish Editor Alan Cochrane comments: “Only an election can sweep away the cobwebs of a disgraced administration.”
