LONDON — British police investigating corrupt links between police and reporters said they arrested two journalists for questioning Wednesday.

The men, who are 34 and 37, were detained at their homes in an early-morning raid, police said.

Both were questioned on suspicion of conspiracy to corrupt and of a conspiracy to cause misconduct in a public office, police said. The men were later released on bail to return for further questioning in October.

The arrests are related to suspected payments made to a specific public official.
