A South Korean man accused of accepting cash from Saddam Hussein has been held in the US as part of the probe into the United Nations oil-for-food programme.
Tongsun Park, a businessman and lobbyist, is accused of conspiring to subvert the scheme, which was misused by the former Iraqi leader.
Mr Park received at least $2m (£1.13m) from Baghdad for influencing the programme, according to charges.
The BBC could have done a lot better with this story. Park is just one of the dots that are being connected that lead directly to Koffi Annan.
Just look at how the dots are connected.
Note the Canadian connection. Here's a French connection and here. The Russians were in on it and so was George Galloway.
Just do a search of my blog using "oil for food".
No wonder Annan snapped at a recent press briefing - the noose is getting tighter.
