IN BRIEF: Guatemala's former VP arrested in corruption scandal

Former Guatemalan vice president Roxana Baldetti (pictured) has been arrested by law enforcement officials in capital Guatemala City, local media is reporting.

Baldetti, who resigned from office in May, has been implicated in the so-called La Línea graft scandal, where goods were imported and exported illegally with the help of Guatemalan customs officials.

The revelation of the illegal activities prompted widespread changes at ports across the country.
