£124,550 Motorhome from SNP Scandal Could Be Auctioned by Police
Original source: Daily Record

In Brief

Police Scotland may auction a Niesmann & Bischoff motorhome bought with stolen SNP funds by ex-CEO Peter Murrell. It had just 4 miles on the clock when seized in 2023.

Police Scotland could put up for auction a Niesmann & Bischoff Smove 7.4e motorhome worth £124,550, purchased with funds embezzled from the Scottish National Party (SNP) by former chief executive Peter Murrell.

The vehicle was seized in April 2023 during an investigation into the theft of more than £400,000. At the time of arrest, the odometer showed just 4 miles. The motorhome was insured only for personal use and bore no SNP branding. Murrell also used stolen money to buy a Volkswagen Golf and a Jaguar i-Pace, using fake invoices to conceal the purchases.

After legal proceedings conclude, the vehicle is expected to be sold through Wilsons Auctions. Its fate, while stored at a police compound, will be decided once the case ends.
