UK: Arrest in cash for honours probe

Advertisements [?]

Police have arrested a 60-year-old man in connection with their investigation into cash for honours allegations, Scotland Yard said.

The man was arrested in London borough Redbridge for an offence under the Honours (Prevention of Abuses) Act 1925, it said in statement.

He is currently in custody in a London police station, it added.

The police have said the man is not an MP or a peer but would not say if he was a member of political party.

Wow, I didn't expect arrests. 60 years old - anyone know the ages of people involved?
