Peter Mandelson has been released on bail hours after his earlier arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office, according to Met Police.
This follows an investigation that took place earlier in the month over allegations that, while he was serving as a Government minister, Mandelson passed on sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein.
UK correspondent Enda Brady says Mandelson has denied any wrongdoing.
