The Nationalist Congress Party leader Nawab Malik was arrested on Wednesday by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case.
Mr Malik was questioned by the central agency for over six hours after ED officials reached his residence at 7 am. He will soon be produced before the special prevention of money laundering act court. He walked out of the ED office sloganeering, "We will fight, we will win and we will expose everyone" in Hindi.
The case involves alleged land and money transactions between the underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and the minister for minority development and aukaf of Maharashtra.
