"Following these events Linafoot has suspended its championship," the Ligue Nationale de Football said on their official website (www.linafoot.com) on Wednesday.
The quartet are being questioned over $1 million that was requested from the country's sports ministry to pay for matches involving the DR Congo national side and club teams competing in continental competition.
Luzolo Bambi, who acts as a special advisor to the country's president, Joseph Kabila, ordered the investigation that has seen the quartet detained at the public prosecutor's office in Kinshasa since Tuesday night.
"They were questioned by the Office of Special Adviser to the Head of State in the fight against corruption, Luzolo Bambi," the Linafoot statement continued.
"According to a statement issued Tuesday by Mr Bambi's office, those arrested are suspected of misappropriation of funds intended for the DRC football teams."
