A man has been charged after Isla Bryson - the sex offender who was at the centre of the trans rights row that heaped pressure on Nicola Sturgeon before she quit as Scotland's First Minster - complained of suffering from 'transphobic' abuse in a male prison.

Double-rapist Bryson, born Adam Graham, was initially sent to a women's prison. After a huge public outcry, Bryson was moved to HMP Edinburgh, a prison for men.

Now the 31-year-old is complaining that the all-male jail is "full of transphobic people" and claims to have had "abuse to do with my gender". Police Scotland has confirmed that a 24-year-old man has been charged with threatening and abusive behaviour after a hate crime was reported in the Prison in June.
