Brother of South Korean president detained

SEOUL: The elder brother of South Korean President Lee Myung-Bak was arrested and detained early Wednesday pending a corruption trial, in a setback for the conservative ruling party during an election year.

The Seoul Central District Court approved prosecutors' request for an arrest warrant for Lee Sang-Deuk, a former six-term ruling party lawmaker, over a savings bank scandal.

The 76-year-old was taken to a detention centre immediately after the warrant was issued. Angry bank depositors had hurled eggs at him when he arrived at court Tuesday for questioning.
