Two men arrested in Phone-hacking scandal


Two men have been arrested on suspicion of unlawfully intercepting mobile phone voicemail messages in connection with the News of the World phone-hacking inquiry.


They are understood to be the newspaper's chief reporter Neville Thurlbeck and former news editor Ian Edmondson.

The men, aged 50 and 42, were detained and questioned after attending separate police stations in south west London.

Both were released on police bail until September.

It comes as Sky sources revealed former Tory party treasurer Michael Spencer has asked the Metropolitan Police to look into whether he was also a victim of phone hacking.
