A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: "On Friday 5 February 2021, we received a report of an offensive tweet about Captain Sir Tom Moore who died on Tuesday 2 February.
"A 35-year-old man has subsequently been arrested and charged in connection with communication offences and is due to appear at Lanark Sheriff Court on Wednesday 17 February."

and it states "The only good brit soldier is a deed one, burn auld fella, buuuurn"
There appears to be a sectarian element to this and the animosity amongst some to the army' presence in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. Sir Tom Moore left the army at the end of WWII, so he had not connection to the Troubles.
