Dozens Princes and Businessmen Arrested in Anti-corruption Bid

Among the detained was billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, one of the wealthiest men in the world. Given his widespread investments, his detainment could have an impact on global business. Al Jazeera's Natasha Ghoneim reports on the implications.
