Phone Hacking: Whistleblower's Fresh Claims

By Tom Parmenter, News Correspondent

A whistleblowing suspect has given detectives hundreds of new leads in the phone-hacking inquiry.

Detectives from Scotland Yard's Operation Weeting inquiry are now working through the wealth of new evidence.

Sky Sources understand the data relates to new potential victims as well as fresh allegations surrounding people who thought their particular case had been dealt with.

The suspect allegedly has first-hand knowledge of the hacking of celebrity phones.

It is believed they have provided information that relates to both News International and Mirror Group newspapers.

Earlier this week, senior journalists connected to Mirror Group titles were arrested, questioned and bailed by detectives.

Richard Wallace, former Mirror editor, has been questioned by police

They were James Scott, former deputy editor of the Sunday Mirror and current editor of The Sunday People and Nick Buckley, the former head of news at the Sunday Mirror and now deputy editor of the Sunday People.

Former editor of the Sunday Mirror Tina Weaver was also questioned, as well as Mark Thomas, former deputy editor of the Sunday Mirror and former editor of the Sunday People.

On Friday it emerged that former editor of the Daily Mirror Richard Wallace had also been to a south London police station to be questioned by detectives.

The Mirror Group has always denied any wrongdoing in connection with the hacking scandal.

The Metropolitan Police said they were primarily focusing on activities at the Sunday Mirror between 2003 and 2004.

Scotland Yard declined to comment officially on the new developments - but Operation Weeting is now likely to run far longer than originally thought.
