Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and former Andhra Pradesh chief minister Chandrababu Naidu was arrested in the early hours of Saturday, in connection with a corruption case. He has, reportedly, been shifted to Vijayawada.

Andhra Pradesh Criminal Investigation Department officers reached Nandyal, where Naidu was visiting, with a arrest warrant against him. However, they could not take him into custody as TDP supporters protested. They questioned the late-night action against Naidu.

A minor scuffle, too, broke out between the police and the party workers.

(More details awaited.)
