Leading lawyer to sue First Minister

ONE of Scotland's leading lawyers is to sue First Minister Alex Salmond over comments made in a magazine interview.

Human rights solicitor Professor Tony Kelly claims Mr Salmond “has called into question my professional integrity”.

And he added: “With regret, I have had to take legal advice and following upon that, given the nature of attacks upon me, I have decided to formalise my opinion.”
