Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has been reported to police in Scotland over comments made about former first minister Nicola Sturgeon in his Tory conference speech.
Mr Sunak sought to make fun of the former SNP leader after she was arrested and questioned as part of Police Scotland's investigation into her party's finances - dubbed Operation Branchform.
Ms Sturgeon was released without charge following her arrest back in June.
Now Chris McEleny, the general secretary of the rival pro-independence Alba Party, has reported Mr Sunak to the force for contempt of court allegations, as the PM's comments come amid a live police investigation.

HS2 is absolutely vital. Totally agree w @andy4wm. Post Brexit we must be AMBITIOUS for our country and hungry for our economy. What signal would it send if we cancelled our highest profile infrastructure project and weakened our commitment to share prosperity around the country?"
"No HS2 = no ambition for our country just when the whole world is looking at us. Now is a time to be AMBITIOUS! #GreatDecision
