The only surviving American flag from one of the most famous battles of the American West, Custer's Last Stand, has been sold for

approximately

$2m at Sotheby's in New York. The silk Cavalry flag was carried into the 1876 battle at Little Bighorn, where General Custer led 200 soldiers against a much stronger force from the Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne tribes. Bethany Bell reports from Washington.

The battle was a huge victory for the Native Americans, but the public frenzy to

Custer's death

on display

to the public. It's not yet clear who bought it at auction.

Austrian police have arrested Croatia's fugitive former Prime Minister Ivo Sanader. He's now expected to face extradition to Croatia. Kerry Skyring reports from Vienna.

Ivo Sanader was picked up while driving near Salzburg and is now being detained at a courthouse in the city. An interior ministry spokesman says police were acting on an international arrest warrant issued by Croatian justice officials, who want to question the former prime minister on corruption charges. Mr Sanader has strong links to Austria and once studied at the University of Innsbruck. Friends of the former prime minister had told Croatian media he was simply on a business trip.
