Former top Labour party official Peter Mandelson, 72, has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in connection to his ties with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Mandelson, who previously served as the UK’s ambassador to the United States, was taken into custody by authorities in London. The Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest without directly naming Mandelson. This comes after a trove of emails revealed a closer relationship between Mandelson and Epstein than previously known.
