A 19-year-old man is charged after personal details belonging to Scottish referee John Beaton are leaked online following the match between Motherwell and Celtic. The leak follows controversy surrounding events in the game, including a penalty-related dispute. Multiple outlets report that police treat the matter as a data protection offence. The Glasgow Times says the teenager is due to appear in court, while other reports identify the suspect as 19 and state he has been charged. Sky News and the Evening Standard both report the charge relates to data protection offences, indicating an alleged breach involving personal information rather than a direct match-related allegation. The Independent states that the personal information connected to John Beaton is posted online after Celtic’s win over Motherwell, adding that the leak occurs in the wider context of the match’s penalty controversy. Across the reports, the central points remain consistent: the referee’s personal information is leaked online, a suspect is arrested/charged, and the matter proceeds through the courts.
