Former Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari arrested by NAB

Former Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari was on Monday arrested by the top anti-corruption body of the country after the Islamabad High Court rejected Zardari’s and his sister’s bail application in a money-laundering case, reports said.

The National Accountability Bureau of Pakistan arrested the Pakistan Peoples Party Co-chairman from Zardari House in Islamabad.  He will reportedly be shifted to the NAB headquarters, where special room has been set up for him.  He will be presented before the court on Tuesday.
