Demise of News Of The World.

Having had experience of clients facing exposure to the "Investigation" and attendant publication in the News Of The World, I am not too despondent at the demise of this title.See ECHR Shannon 2001 as an example of the fake sheikh variety.There will no doubt be other newspapers that have been indulging in these dark practices.
As one who has had a vast experience of representing clients in police stations, I am not surprised that officers have apparently been receiving income from the media. Bear in mind also that most private investigators are ex-officers who often rely on their former contacts.I am actually surprised that these issues have not surfaced years earlier. I am sceptical as to the outcome of a Met Police investigation into this murky area. Long grass and Public Inquiry ditto.
