Polidano was reported to have been arrested at his home and escorted to police CID in handcuffs.
A search of his Safi home by police was followed by the confiscation of a number of electronic devices.
The newspaper said Polidano was said to have made threats against a woman close to him. The gender-based violence unit is also investigating the case.
Polidano was recently served with a number of court documents ordering him to pay a massive €40 million bill, some of which stretches back to the 1990s.
Construction magnate Charles Polidano was interrogated by police on Saturday afternoon on alleged threats, use of force, bodily harm, and revenge porn.
Details are still sketchy but sources told Times of Malta that Polidano, one of Malta s main building contractors, was arrested at his home and escorted to police CID in handcuffs. He was granted police bail later on Saturday.
Police have conducted a search of his Safi home and lifted a number of electronic devices.
Sources said he had made threats against a woman close to him. The gender based violence unit is also investigating the case.
Family members were seen outside police headquarters in Floriana. His lawyers Michael Sciriha and Jean Paul Saummit were seen walking out in the early evening.
The law speaks clearly of maintaining “high standards in public life”. The people expect and deserve no less, particularly as they continue to learn about the disdainful manner in which politicians and senior civil servants can behave.
The main responsibility to ensure these high standards are maintained falls squarely on the shoulders of the commissioner for standards in public life.
In late 2019, the office issued a document themed ‘Towards higher standards in public life’, authored by the present commissioner, George Hyzler, and his director-general, Charles Polidano.
In its introduction, the report notes that although the constitution supports ethical standards in public life it does not spell out such standards in detail but shapes them and shores them up through the general principles it sets out and the safeguards by which it seeks to uphold them.
