New evidence against News of the World emerges in phone hacking case

New evidence against News of the World emerges in phone hacking case Some new evidence has emerged in the case involving hacking on voice messages of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler against reporters from News of the World.

The new details indicate that the reporters had details of more voice mails and earlier thought. A report in the Wall Street Journal has cited earlier editions of the paper which impressed upon more messages on the phone.

The WSJ said that it found in a review of the papers that an edition of that day contained detailed quotes from three voicemails. The News of the World wrote in its final edition that a woman pretending to be Milly applied for a job with a recruitment agency.

The British tabloid also said the women gave Milly’s real phone number and the recruitment agency called the number when they had a vacancy. The agency left a message about six days after she went missing. The newspaper then informed the authorities about the voicemail that it intercepted. But now the WSJ report suggests that the earlier editions of the newspaper from the day include details from two other voice mail messages.

13- year old Milly disappeared on her way home from school in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, on 21 March 2002 and was found dead in a forest 25 miles away.
