Paul Flowers arrested over drugs allegations
The former chairman of
the Co-op Bank has been arrested in Merseyside in connection with a
"drugs supply investigation", the BBC understands.
Following the revelations he was suspended from both the Methodist Church, where he was a minister in Bradford, and the Labour Party.
He left his position as deputy chairman of the Co-op Group in June.
In a statement, West Yorkshire Police said: "Officers have... arrested a 63-year-old man in the Merseyside area in connection with an ongoing drugs supply investigation.
"He has been taken to a police station in West Yorkshire where detectives will continue their enquiries."
