Issue was caused by squad at the end of crashlog which i assumed was a squad not belonging to my fortress due to the squad having a custom nickname.

I have disbanded the squad and now all seems good.

No, this issue is not closed.

The fact that you happened to find a workaround is irrelevant - the bug still exists and needs to be fixed, and this report shouldn't be closed until that actual bug is fixed.

Do you have a copy of your savegame from when it was still crashing? If so, upload a copy of it to the DF File Depot.
