(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) Croatian anti-graft police arrested the mayor of Zagreb Milan Bandic, and several of his associates on Sunday on suspicion of corruption and abuse of office, Croatian media reported, according to Reuters.
The police and the state prosecutor said only that several people from the Zagreb administration had been arrested but did not name them, in line with usual practice.
But all local media and the national televisions named Bandic as one of those arrested. Reports have linked Bandic to a number of corruption probes in the past decade but he has never been interrogated or detained until now.
