Hide AdLothian and Borders Police said they are now looking into information passed to them by a third party.
A police spokesman said: "We are making inquiries into the possibility that another person has grounds for complaint."
Yesterday, Scottish Premier League chief executive Neil Doncaster stressed the organisation must not become involved in the affair.
He insisted Hearts must be left alone to decide Thomson's future.
