SNP treasurer Colin Beattie has been arrested by police investigating the party's finances.
Ednews informs via BBC that Mr Beattie, 71, has been taken into custody and is being questioned by Police Scotland detectives.
A spokesman for the force said the arrest was made in connection with the continuing investigation into the funding and finances of the SNP.
It comes two weeks after former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell - Nicola Sturgeon's husband - was also arrested.
Police Scotland launched its Operation Branchfoot investigation into the SNP's finances in July 2021 after receiving complaints about how donations were used.
