  • The Procurator Fiscal decided there should be no proceedings against the 31-year-old Romanian woman, while reserving the right to act if new admissible evidence emerges.
  • Police Scotland reported that two people unsuccessfully attempted to enter HM Naval Base Clyde at around 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 19.
  • The Royal Navy confirmed the arrests and declined further comment, citing the ongoing investigation.
