A MIDWIFE at the centre of a police investigation into her care of 22 mothers and babies has been reported to the procurator fiscal.

Kirsteen Stewart, 45, was suspended by NHS Grampian after colleagues raised concerns about her work at Aberdeen Maternity Hospital.

Health bosses called in police and dozens of parents were interviewed. She was later banned from working for 18 months by the the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) which was notified of "serious allegations of malpractice".

Now police have confirmed that the midwife, who lives in Newmachar, has been reported to the procurator.
