Amy Winehouse is arrested

Amy Winehouse has been released on bail after being arrested for perverting the course of justice.

Police interviewed Winehouse as part of an ongoing investigation at a North London police station last night.

Husband Blake Fielder-Civil, who is currently remanded in custody, is due to appear in court next month on the same charge.

A Scotland Yard spokesperson said: "A 24-year-old woman has been arrested by appointment at an East London police station.

A spokesperson for the singer commented: "Amy Winehouse attended a London police station today on a voluntary basis at a pre-agreed time.

"She was arrested, as is common practice, she is being interviewed by police. No charges have been brought."
