A man has been arrested and charged after an allegedly racially abusive letter was sent to Labour MSP Anas Sarwar.
The 68-year-old man has been released on an undertaking to appear in court at a later date.
Mr Sarwar has launched a cross-party group on tackling racism and Islamophobia at the Scottish Parliament.
Earlier this year he spoke out about his experience of racism and Islamophobia while he was a candidate for the Scottish Labour leadership.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "A 68-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with sending a letter to a Labour MSP which has allegedly racially abusive content.
"He has been released on an undertaking to appear at court at a later date and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal."
