From the Latin ' arrestare ', which means to stop or restrain and hold back, the meaning has changed very little over the past few centuries. Anything which can be “held back” can be “arrested”. If someone's movement has been arrested, then that means they are no longer moving forward.... if a project has been arrested, then that project has ceased making progress.
