Quick Glance: Police Investigation into SNP Finances: Key Updates

On Thursday, the re-arrest of Peter Murrell, the husband of Nicola Sturgeon, took place as part of the police investigation into the SNP’s finances.

Murrell, aged 59, was apprehended and underwent interrogation by detectives.

The arrest occurred slightly more than a year subsequent to the search conducted by Police Scotland officers at the couple’s residence, where a blue tent was set up outside the property, alongside searches at the SNP’s headquarters in Edinburgh.

In April 2024, Peter Murrell was charged with 'embezzlement' of funds from the SNP.

Quick Glance: Scottish Government Abandons 'World-Leading' Climate Target

The Scottish Government has abandoned its “world-leading” target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030.

Ministers will bring forward legislation to ensure the climate change target “better reflects the reality of long-term climate policymaking”.

Scotland will move away from legally binding annual targets to a five-yearly carbon budget approach.

A new package of climate action measures was announced, including tripling the number of charging points for electric vehicles and exploring a new integrated ticketing system for public transport in Scotland.

Quick Glance: Trump's Hush Money Trial Highlights

Former President Donald Trump expressed frustration over attending his hush money criminal trial in Manhattan instead of campaigning for the 2024 presidential run.

Court confirmed it will remain in session on Tuesday despite a request from the Trump team to break for Passover.

The judge plans to hold a Sandoval hearing tomorrow to decide on the admissibility of prior bad acts in the trial.

Despite initial setbacks, a total of 12 jurors, including one alternate, were selected for Trump's hush money case, with the process to choose the remaining alternate jurors starting tomorrow.

Michael Cohen describes Trump's complaint about a potential ban on attending Barron's graduation ceremony as comical.

Cohen points out that Trump apparently did not attend the graduation ceremonies of his other children.

Cohen is expected to be a key witness in Trump's trial, which revolves around allegations of hush money payments to silence an affair with Stormy Daniels.

Quick Glance: Newborn Borneo Orangutan at Busch Gardens, Florida

An endangered Bornean orangutan baby was born at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay in Florida.

Following a cesarean section on Saturday, the baby orangutan weighing just over three pounds (1.3 kilograms) was brought into the world by park officials. Once stabilized, the mother Luna is recovering from the surgery and will soon reunite with her baby.

Known as the largest tree-dwelling ape species and the third largest overall, the Bornean orangutan's birth signifies a significant step in orangutan conservation efforts.

Orangutans typically have a lifespan of 35 to 40 years in the wild. The newborn ape has not been named yet and resides in a zoo within the Tampa theme park, known as one of the largest in North America, accommodating thousands of animals.
