COPS at the election count in Glasgow asked that three ballot papers be removed over concerns of impersonation.
Election officials earlier in the night briefed journalists that four papers had been reported, with one of those in the Glasgow West constituency of particular concern.
The paper was identified and removed by officials wearing blue gloves and placed in a bag.
At around 11:20pm, officials informed the Press that Police Scotland had requested that an additional two of the initial four ballot papers flagged were also to be identified and removed.
It is understood that these two papers were returned in the Glasgow South-West constituency.
All three ballots that were of concern have been identified and removed.
