India's financial crime agency arrested Arvind Kejriwal, chief minister of the national capital territory of Delhi, on Thursday over bribery allegations related to the city's liquor policy.
Kejriwal's arrest less than a month before the start of India's polls is a huge setback for his party and the larger opposition alliance of which he is a key leader.
AAP members, including some ministers in the Delhi city government, were stopped by police and taken away in buses as they shouted slogans and tried to march to a city court.
