NASSAU (AFP) — A woman politician has been arrested in the Bahamas in connection with an investigation into a plot to extort money from grieving actor John Travolta, police said Friday.

Senior Assistant Commissioner Marvin Dames confirmed that senator Pleasant Bridgewater was arrested and questioned late Thursday.

Two men were also reportedly arrested on Friday.

Travolta and his wife, actress Kelly Preston, alerted police that they had been approached by someone claiming to have photographs of their son Jett, who died earlier this month at the family's vacation home in the Bahamas.

"As a result of that complaint we would have initiated investigations into the matter and this is a part of the ongoing investigations," Dames said.

No charges have yet been brought.

Officials in the Bahamas who conducted an autopsy earlier this month on Jett Travolta said the 16-year-old died of a seizure and that his body showed no signs of head trauma.

The autopsy results appeared to contradict statements from the boy's family and island police that he had hit his head in the bathroom.

Jett was the only son of 54-year-old film star John Travolta and Preston, 46. The couple also has an eight-year-old daughter, Ella.

Jett was last seen on New Year's Day when he went to use the bathroom at the family's residence at the Old Bahama Bay Resort on Grand Bahama island. He was found around 10:00 am the next morning unconscious in the bathroom.

Jett Travolta had had a history of seizures since he was a toddler. But his father denied reports that his son was autistic, saying that at age two, Jett had Kawasaki Syndrome, a condition that can lead to heart disease, US media reported.
