RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Police in Rio de Janeiro have begun interrogating the first of three of Ireland's top Olympic executives in a ticket-scalping investigation.
Secretary General Dermot Henihan was seen arriving at Rio's police headquarters Tuesday. Team leader Kevin Kilty chief and executive Stephen Martin are also expected.
Chief investigator Ronaldo Oliveira says the three agreed to answer questions after their passports, phones and laptops were recently seized in an Olympic Village raid.
Olympic Council of Ireland President Patrick Hickey was arrested last week and is being held in Rio's Bangu prison complex as the investigation expands.
