Released Nadir vows to take action for wrongful arrest

Former Polly Peck tycoon Asil Nadir was released from custody tonight and vowed to issue a writ for wrongful arrest.

The 69-year-old, who is on bail and faces a multimillion-pound theft trial next year, was arrested at his home this afternoon for allegedly breaching a midnight to 6am curfew that was part of his bail terms.
