Former Indian finance minister Chidambaram arrested in corruption case

Police arrested former Indian finance minister P Chidambaram late on Wednesday in relation to alleged corruption and money laundering, a day after the Delhi High Court rejected his application to seek exemption from arrest.

The CBI and Enforcement Directorate - India's financial crime-fighting agency - have alleged that Chidambaram abused his official position while he was finance minister. Officials have also alleged Chidambaram was involved in money laundering and conspired around the approval of a telecommunications deal in 2006.

He was then taken away in a car that his party supporters tried to stop briefly, local media reported.
