Sara Payne 'on phone hack list'

The mother of murder victim Sarah Payne has been told she may have been the victim of phone-hacking, her charity has said.

Police told Sara Payne her details were in notes compiled by private detective Glenn Mulcaire, who was used by the News of the World, which championed her child protection campaign.

The Phoenix charity says Ms Payne is "absolutely devastated".

The paper's owner News International has not yet responded to the claims.

The Metropolitan Police's Operation Weeting is investigating claims of phone-hacking at the paper, which was shut down earlier this month following claims that the phone of murder victim Milly Dowler had been hacked while she was still missing.

Ms Payne had previously said she had not been told she was a potential victim of phone hacking.

But in a statement the Phoenix charity said: "Whilst it was previously confirmed by 'Operation Weeting' that Sara Payne's name was not on Private Investigator 'Glenn Mulcaire' list, it has now been confirmed by the 'Operation Weeting' that Sara's details are on his list.

"Sara is absolutely devastated by this news, we're all deeply disappointed and are just working to get her through it.

"Sara will continue to work with the proper authorities regarding this matter, there will be a further statement in due course, but at this point in time, she (or we) can make no further comment."
