“In light of these extremely serious and concerning allegations, it is only right that the process be paused until a full investigation has taken place and concluded.'

A series of “concerning” allegations against a Glasgow trust, including supposed links to a former SNP councillor convicted of grooming six teenage boys, has sparked calls for a probe.

Kerr’s offences included attempting to rape one of the victims at his home in Croy, Lanarkshire. Most of the incidents occurred before he was elected in 2017, but he groped the final victim at a foodbank in May 2020.Concerns have been raised about the trust potentially taking over the football pitches in Springburn Park. The written complaint to the council also makes allegations that the trust has been “bullying” local residents and other groups.

“It is of the utmost importance that the local community in Springburn has full confidence in the process that has been followed and that these public assets are run in the interest of the community and wider public, not to further narrow vested interests.”
