The editor of the Times and Sunday Times newspapers in Scotland has been suspended after being charged over indecent online communications. Owner News UK said that David McCann, 43, was subject to a "criminal investigation unrelated to his work". Police Scotland said that Mr McCann had been arrested after officers searched a property in Edinburgh on 25 November. He appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court the following day, made no plea, and was later bailed for further examinations to take place.
