Rebekah Brooks arrested by police in hacking probe

17 July 2011 Last updated at 13:35 GMTHelp

Former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks has been arrested by police investigating phone hacking and bribery at the News of the World.

The 43-year-old was arrested by appointment at a London police station and remains in custody.

BBC business editor Robert Peston says that News International was not aware that Mrs Brooks would be arrested when her resignation was being discussed at the company on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week, and that the development was "quite striking".

Mrs Brooks is due to appear in front of the Commons media select committee on Tuesday to answer MPs questions on the hacking scandal.

  U.K. Police Arrest Former Chief of Newspaper Unit in Phone-Hacking Probe

  By CASSELL BRYAN-LOW And PAUL SONNE

  The U.K. police investigation into alleged phone hacking took a dramatic turn Sunday with the arrest of Rebekah Brooks, the former chief of News Corp.'s U.K. newspaper unit who resigned Friday.

  London's Metropolitan Police, known as Scotland Yard, arrested her around noon Sunday when she appeared by appointment at a London police station. She hadn't been charged.

  It was the 10th arrest by police in a dual probe investigating allegations of voicemail interceptions and corrupt payments to police. The allegations focus on the News of the World, News Corp.'s Sunday tabloid that the company recently closed after 168 years amid an escalating scandal.

  News Corp. owns Dow Jones & Co. and The Wall Street Journal.

  By midafternoon on Sunday, Ms. Brooks remained in police custody along with her legal representation, according to a spokesman for the former News International chief executive. "She is assisting police at the moment," the spokesman said, noting that the appointment with police was prearranged. "Until that's completed, I can't really say any more."

  Ms. Brooks is due to come under public scrutiny this week when she appears before a parliamentary committee alongside News Corp. Chairman and Chief Executive Rupert Murdochand his son, James Murdoch, News Corp.'s deputy chief operating officer. The trio will face questioning from U.K. politicians about the hacking and whether executives previously misled parliament.

  The News Corp. phone-hacking scandal involves allegations that the company's News of the World tabloid illegally accessed mobile-phone voice mails and bribed police to get information. The scandal has been simmering for years but escalated to a new level recently with the allegation that the paper in 2002 hacked the phone of a missing 13-year-old girl who turned out to be dead.

  That drew Ms. Brooks deeper into the scandal as she was the editor of News of the World at the time. Ms. Brooks is a protege of Rupert Murdoch who had risen quickly through the tabloid ranks of News Corp.'s British newspaper operations. He defended her strongly in the days before her resignation.

  The News That Shook the World

  July 4: A lawyer for murdered teen Milly Dowler's family says he learned from police that her voice-mail messages had been hacked, possibly by a News of the World investigator.

  July 6: U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron says he is 'revolted' by allegations that private investigators from the paper eavesdropped on the voice mails of victims of crime.

  July 7: News Corp. announces it will close down the News of the World. The July 10 edition of the weekly paper was the last.

  July 8: Mr. Cameron announces two inquiries, one on the hacking scandal, another focusing on press regulations. Former News of the World editor and ex-Cameron aide Andy Coulson is arrested in connection with the scandal.

  July 10: Mr. Murdoch flies into London to handle the crisis.

  July 12: Former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown accuses News International of employing criminals to obtain confidential information about his family. News International defends its journalism.

  July 13: Under U.K. political pressure, News Corp. withdraws its bid to buy the 60.9% of British Sky Broadcasting that it doesn't already own.

  July 14: Rupert Murdoch and son James Murdoch agree to testify at a parliamentary hearing to answer questions about the company's phone-hacking scandal. In the U.S., the FBI said it would open a probe into whether News of the World might have hacked into phones of 9/11 victims.

  On Friday, people close to the company said her resignation wasn't tied to any new developments in the police investigation that were known to be coming. Instead, the company portrayed it as part of a broader damage-control campaign that it rolled out Friday and that also included the resignation of Dow Jones Chief Executive Les Hinton and several apologies from Rupert Murdoch.

  Others arrested including former News of the World editor Andy Coulson as well as several former editors and senior reporters. No one has been charged. In the U.K., individuals can be arrested without being charged. Once police investigate further, charges may follow, which can be a matter of days or months.

  The arrest of Ms. Brooks will further intensify already high expectations for Tuesday's parliamentary hearing. News International executives as recently as 2009 had told the committee that the phone hacking was limited to just one reporter at the News of the World.

  The committee also has previously asked Ms. Brooks about payments to police. While editor of the Sun in 2003, she told the committee: "We have paid the police for information in the past," without elaborating.

  In April, Ms. Brooks said in a letter to lawmakers that her intention was to comment on a "widely held belief" rather than suggest she knew of specific cases.

  James Murdoch earlier this month said that News of the World and News International had failed to "get to the bottom of repeated wrongdoing that occurred" and, as a result, "wrongly maintained that these issues were confined to one reporter." The company now had handed police evidence that he believed "will prove that this is untrue," he said.

  "The paper made statements to Parliament without being in the full possession of the facts. This was wrong," James Murdoch added, in the statement.

  Following her resignation Friday, Ms. Brooks said in an email to staff: "I feel a deep sense of responsibility for the people we have hurt and I want to reiterate how sorry I am.

  "I have believed that the right and responsible action has been to lead us through the heat of the crisis, however my desire to remain on the bridge has made me a focal point of the debate," she said. "This is now detracting attention from all our honest endeavours to fix the problems of the past," she added.

  As Rupert Murdoch's protege, Ms. Brooks quickly rose to be one of the U.K.'s most powerful journalists. Her drive and determination won her a place close to the News Corp. chief executive. Known for her ability to charm, and her striking mane of red hair, Ms. Brooks is well connected within the U.K.'s political and business elite.

  Both Prime Minister David Cameron and his predecessor, Gordon Brown attended her wedding to Charlie Brooks, a racehorse trainer and who is an old friend of Mr. Cameron's. Since May of last year, Ms. Brooks has made several social and other visits to the prime minister, including twice to his official country residence, according to records released Friday.

  Speaking before Parliament last week, however, Mr. Cameron distanced himself from her, saying that if her resignation had been offered, it should have been accepted.

  Ms. Brooks grew up in Cheshire, in the north of England. She joined News Corp in 1989 as a feature writer for News of the World's Sunday magazine. She rose up to the ranks and was named News of the World editor. In 2003, she became editor of its sister publication the Sun, a daily publication. She is known for her campaign-style of journalism, including efforts such as successfully championing a change in the law to allow parents to access the sex-offenders register following the murder of an eight-year-old girl by someone convicted of sex offences.

  Max Clifford, a public-relations adviser who has long known Ms. Brooks, described her as a decisive editor who knew readers well and the best way to present stories to appeal to that market. "Rupert recognized that," said Mr. Clifford. "She's played an incredible role in building the company in this country," he added.

  Ms. Brooks had become the public face of the scandal and for many British lawmakers their chief target. Chris Bryant, the Labour lawmaker who has pushed the issue hardest, said he was "delighted" by the news, and that Ms. Brooks should have been arrested in 2003 when she told a parliamentary committee that News International had paid police officials.

  Mr. Bryant thinks that police attention should now focus on James Murdoch, given he was privy to payments made to several people who had complained of phone hacking. "It feels as if the water is lapping around the feet of the Murdoch family now," he said.

LONDON | Sun Jul 17, 2011 6:49pm IST

(Reuters) - Rebekah Brooks, former editor of the News of the World and a favoured lieutenant of Rupert Murdoch, was arrested on Sunday as part of an investigation into allegations of phone hacking and bribing police, sources familiar with the situation said.

Brooks, 43, has said she was unaware of allegations that the News of the World tabloid hacked thousands of phones including that of a murdered schoolgirl.

She resigned on Friday as chief executive of News International to try to deflect pressure from the media empire of Murdoch, whose News Corp has been rocked by the crisis.

Her lawyer Dave Wilson told Reuters that Brooks went to a London police station of her own volition by pre-arranged appointment. He said she was assisting police with their inquiries and declined to comment further.

A senior News International source said the company was surprised by the arrest and had had no indication it was coming.

The News of the World, which published its final edition a week ago, is alleged to have hacked thousands of phones, including that of murdered 13-year-old Milly Dowler, sparking a furore that forced Murdoch to close the paper and drop a $12 billion plan to buy all of highly profitable broadcaster BSkyB.

Brooks, Murdoch and his son James will be questioned in Britain's parliament on Tuesday, including over reports that News International misled parliament during earlier hearings.

Brooks became the focus of widespread anger over the scandal but was initially protected by Murdoch, who guided her rise through the male-dominated world of UK tabloid journalism to become editor of the News of the World in 2000 and the Sun's first female editor in 2003.

Murdoch broke his silence by publishing apologies in several newspapers at the weekend, as British politicians demanded his grip over the country's media be weakened.

He lost another loyal executive on Friday when Les Hinton resigned as chief executive of Murdoch's Dow Jones & Co which publishes The Wall Street Journal.

"There are no excuses and should be no place to hide ... We will continue to cooperate fully and actively with the Metropolitan Police Service," News International said in an announcement on Sunday. Unlike apologies published on Saturday, these were not signed by Murdoch.

Leading British politicians renewed calls for greater media plurality and press regulation -- a direct threat to Murdoch's empire, which includes the influential Sun tabloid newspaper, the Times and Sunday Times broadsheets, and crucially, a large chunk of BSkyB.

The Sunday Telegraph reported that members of the board of BSkyB, of which News Corp owns 39 percent and where James serves as chairman, are due to meet in a special session on July 28 to discuss his future.

The scandal has also embroiled Britain's police, who are accused of being too close to News Corp, of accepting cash from the now defunct News of the World and other newspapers, and of not doing enough to investigate the phone-hacking allegations that surfaced as far as back as 2005.

LONDON

London police arrested Rebekah Brooks, Rupert Murdoch's former British CEO, in the phone hacking and police bribery scandal Sunday, and the former News of the World editor said she was "assisting the police with their inquiries."

Brooks, 43, was arrested at a London police station at noon Sunday by appointment. She is being questioned on suspicion of conspiring to intercept communications -- phone hacking -- and on suspicion of corruption, which relates to bribing police for information.

A statement released on Brooks' behalf said she "voluntarily attended a London police station to assist with their ongoing investigation."

The arrest comes just two days before Brooks, Rupert Murdoch and his son James are due to answer questions from a parliamentary committee investigating the hacking. Sunday's arrest throws that appearance before Parliament's Culture, Media and Sport committee into question; Brooks would not have to answer questions that could prejudice a criminal investigation.

Brooks, one of Murdoch's most loyal lieutenants, stepped down Friday as head of his British newspapers. She was editor of the now-defunct News of the World between 2000 and 2003, when some of the phone hacking took place, but has always said she did not know hacking was going on, a claim greeted with skepticism by many who worked there.

At an appearance before lawmakers in 2003, she admitted that News International had paid police for information. That admission of possible illegal activity went largely unchallenged and, at the time, little noticed.

Police have already arrested nine other people connected to Murdoch's British media empire over allegations that the News of the World hacked into the phone voice mails of hundreds of celebrities, politicians, rival journalists and even murder victims. No one has yet been charged.

Rebekah Brooks arrested as Murdoch woes grow

By Danny Kemp (AFP) – 3 hours ago 

LONDON — British police on Sunday arrested Rebekah Brooks, a former top aide to Rupert Murdoch, casting doubt over her appearance before lawmakers this week to answer questions about the phone-hacking scandal.

The arrest of Brooks, 43, who resigned on Friday as chief executive of Murdoch's British newspaper wing, piled pressure on Murdoch as the leader of the Labour opposition called for the break-up of his British media empire.

But there was immediate speculation about why the under-fire Scotland Yard made her pre-arranged arrest when it did, when it could mean that she is now unable to face questions before a parliamentary committee on Tuesday.

"Rebekah had a prearranged appointment with police which she attended of her own volition. She was arrested on arrival by police," her spokesman David Wilson told AFP.

Scotland Yard would only confirm that a 43-year-old woman had been arrested "in connection with allegations of corruption and phone hacking" at the News of the World tabloid, which Brooks once edited and which shut down last week.

It said in a statement that she "was arrested by appointment at a London police station by officers" and was in custody.

Brooks is the 10th person and most senior member of Murdoch's empire to be arrested so far over the scandal, which exploded earlier this month amid claims that under her watch the News of the World hacked the phone of a murdered girl.

The flame-haired Brooks is due to appear alongside Murdoch and his son James, the chairman of News International, before the British parliament's media committee on Tuesday to answer questions about the growing scandal.

But the chairman of the committee, John Whittingdale, was quoted by Sky News as saying that he now did not know if she would attend, as questioning Brooks could in theory interfere with the police investigation.

Her arrest came hours after Murdoch published his second apology in British newspapers, although it failed to stop opposition Labour leader Ed Miliband calling for his British media interests to be dismantled.

"I think he has too much power over British public life," Miliband told the Observer newspaper, citing his ownership of the The Sun, Times and The Sunday Times newspapers as well as a 39 percent share in pay-TV giant BSkyB.

Abandoning his earlier defiance, Murdoch placed ads in most of Britain's Sunday newspapers for a second day, this time entitled "Putting right what's gone wrong".

Sunday's ads promised to fully cooperate with police investigating the hacking and provide compensation for those targeted, adding: "There are no excuses and there should be no place to hide."

Murdoch closed the News of the World one week ago but the move failed to stem the scandal, which is threatening the interests of the Australian-born magnate's News Corporation all around the world.

In recent days his bid for control of the rest of BSkyB collapsed while Brooks's departure on Friday was followed hours later by that of Dow Jones chief Les Hinton.

The Murdoch empire's links to the police and politicians also came under fresh scrutiny on Sunday.

Scotland Yard revealed that Commissioner Paul Stephenson met its executives and editors 18 times socially between 2006 and 2010. The force has faced criticism for botching the initial investigation into the News of the World.

Stephenson was linked to former News of the World deputy editor Neil Wallis in reports Sunday which said the police chief accepted a five-week stay earlier this year at a luxury health spa where Wallis worked as a PR consultant.

The force is already facing questions about why it hired Wallis as an advisor two months after he quit the tabloid. Wallis was arrested last week.

A police spokesman strongly denied any wrongdoing.

Home Secretary Theresa May will make a statement to parliament on Monday to set out her "concerns" about the hiring of Wallis.

Prime Minister David Cameron meanwhile faced questions about his decision to invite his former media chief Andy Coulson, another ex-News of the World editor, to his country residence in March, two months after Coulson quit Downing Street.

Coulson was arrested and bailed by police earlier this month.

The hacking scandal is also being investigated by the FBI in the United States, where News Corp. is based and where Murdoch is a naturalised US citizen.
