A retired Scotland Yard officer has been arrested by detectives investigating inappropriate payments from journalists.
The 57-year-old - who served on the force's command that defends Britain against terror - is being questioned on suspicion of misconduct in a public office, relating to the phone-hacking scandal.
His home is being searched by Operation Elveden officers after a swoop on the property at 6.30am.
