The Patisserie Valerie cafe in Cambridge. The owner of Patisserie Valerie has said its finance director Chris Marsh was arrested last night and then released on bail.

Mr Marsh had been suspended when these problems were discovered. Later on Friday the Serious Fraud Office said it had "opened a criminal investigation into an individual".
