Celtic sign Tierney from Arsenal on five-year deal
June 10 (Reuters) - Celtic have signed Scotland left back Kieran Tierney from Arsenal on a five-year contract, the Scottish Premiership champions said on Tuesday. The 28-year-old, who made his senior debut at Celtic in 2015, will be back at the club after six years. He made 170 appearances for the Scottish club, scoring eight goals before joining Arsenal in 2019. "Everybody's known for a few months and just to be here with the Celtic strip on again just feels amazing," Tierney said. "... When you move away from home, you grow up, you learn different things. I was in Spain (with Real Sociedad on loan) for a year, learning a different language and playing in a different league, so I'm definitely a different person. "My ambition is just for Celtic to be as successful as possible, retain our place at the top and continue to win trophies and do well for Celtic."

Scots woman jailed for sharing online videos of 'tortured monkeys'
Natalie Herron, 39, was sentenced to two years and three months at Airdrie Sheriff Court today. She previously pled guilty on Tuesday to charges of distributing and possessing obscene publications between December 2021 and September 2022. The investigation was part of a wider operation with the National Wildlife Crime Unit, which saw Herron arrested on Wednesday, September 7, 2022, following intelligence from the National Crime Agency. This is the first time someone has been sentenced in Scotland for cruelty that took place abroad, making it a landmark case. Officers said this was one of the most horrific cases they had dealt with and the material was like nothing they had seen before. READ MORE: Scottish health board to scrap free nappies for newborns in bid to save £23m Detective sergeant Karen Murray said: 'This was a long and complex investigation which involved a number of organisations including the National Crime Agency (NCA) and the National Wildlife Crime Unit (NWCU) and was the first of its kind in the UK. "Thanks to the work of these organisations Herron will now face the consequences of her actions which led contributed to the cruel torture and immense suffering of a number of innocent animals. "Through dedicated police work, the investigation team was able to show that Herron was watching and distributing this horrific material and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all who worked on it. "This was one of the most disturbing and graphic cases we have worked on and we hope this sentence shows that even though the cruelty took place abroad, that these types of crimes will not be tolerated and we will use all the tools at our disposal to hold people accountable.' Detective inspector Mark Harrison from the National Wildlife Crime Unit added: 'This investigation is truly shocking and unsettling. The people involved are not just motivated by money, this is also about getting some sort of gratification from watching animals being tortured and then sharing those images with others. "It has been well documented in the media recently what impacts these sorts of online images can have on people, especially young people and there are proven links between those involved in animal cruelty and violence towards people, so we take it very seriously "This investigation is part of a larger transnational investigation that the NWCU has been assisting with and the NWCU would like to thank Police Scotland for their hard work and dedication on this case. It shouldn't be underestimated the impact that working on a case like this can have on those involved. "Wildlife crime can occur in many forms and the NWCU will continue to work with partners from across the world to ensure that we have the expertise, resources, and skills to fight this type of crime, however it may occur.' As part of the wider investigation, two women were jailed at Worcester Crown Court in November last year for their part in a global monkey torture ring. One woman, aged 37, was sentenced to two years, and the other, aged 55, was sentenced to one year and three months in prison. Anyone who has any concerns around this type of behaviour is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101.

He's one of the best so I'm so lucky and grateful that he's given me the chance to come back again. My ambition is just for Celtic to be as successful as possible, retain our place at the top and continue to win trophies and do well for Celtic.'

He is such a talented, high-quality player and he will be a massive addition to our squad. Kieran has always had Celtic in his blood and he is excited to be coming back to the place he loves. 'He is someone who has given so much to Celtic already and I know he is so motivated and hungry to help the club bring more and more success to our fans.'
