Peter Murrell’s £124k motorhome was driven just four miles before police seized it

• Peter Murrell, the former SNP chief executive, embezzled party funds to acquire three personal vehicles, including a luxury campervan, a Volkswagen Golf and a Jaguar i-Pace.
• The £124,550 Niesmann and Bischoff Smove 7.4e campervan was driven only four miles before being seized by police in April 2023.
• Murrell used fraudulent expense claims and direct transfers from SNP accounts, often splitting payments to avoid detection, to fund these purchases.
• False invoices were created to conceal the transactions, with the Jaguar i-Pace described as a 'stage payment' for events and the motorhome as a 'van'.
• The vehicles were for Murrell's personal use, not party assets, and the campervan was configured for pleasure, despite suggestions it could be used for campaigning.
