The French Embassy confirmed today the arrest of Patrick Devillers. He is an architect with ties to the Bo family. According to the New York Times he was hired by Bo in the 1990's and may have set up an architectural firm with Gu Kailai. How Devillers is involved in Bo's scandal is unclear. Some speculate his arrest is related to China's investigation into the death of Neil Heywood, a British national. Gu Kailai is currently detained for his alleged murder. Cambodian police told the AFP that Devillers' arrest was done in cooperation with Chinese authorities, and that Chinese officials are demanding his handover. Devillers awaits extradition to either China or France. The political scandal surrounding Bo Xilai is China's worst in decades, and has shown factional warfare in China's top leadership.
