The Telegraph reported:
“The former Labour minister was pictured being led from his London home by plain clothes police officers.
Scotland Yard has been investigating allegations that he passed sensitive government and market information to Jeffrey Epstein when he was business secretary.
The claims surfaced after emails between the pair were made public in the latest release of documents known as the Epstein Files.”
