The PA news agency understands that Smyth faces a further charge from the police in relation to the allegations.

A Scottish Parliament spokesperson said that given the ongoing criminal investigation, the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB) “took the decision this evening to deactivate Colin Smyth’s parliamentary pass”.

He said: “We recognise the nature of the criminal charges and the ongoing investigation may be upsetting for colleagues and cause distress.

Smyth had earlier been arrested and charged in connection with possession of indecent images, prompting his suspension from Scottish Labour.

He was first elected as an MSP in 2016 and returned to Holyrood again at the 2021 election.

A spokesperson for Police Scotland said: “On Tuesday, August 5 2025, officers executed a warrant at a property on Marchfield Avenue, Dumfries.

A spokesman for Scottish Labour said: “The whip has been removed from Colin Smyth MSP, pending an investigation.”

It is understood the MSP was administratively suspended by Labour after the party became aware of the police investigation.

“I am obviously co-operating fully with any inquiries and hope the matter can be resolved quickly.

A spokesperson for the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service said: “A standard prosecution report has been received by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service from Police Scotland in relation to a 52-year-old man.”
