Four senior journalists have been arrested on suspicion of being involved in a phone voicemail hacking conspiracy involving the Sunday Mirror newspaper.
Sky sources have named those arrested as:
Tina Weaver, the former editor of the Sunday Mirror.
James Scott, the former deputy editor of the Sunday Mirror and current editor of The Sunday People newspaper.
Nick Buckley, the former head of news at the Sunday Mirror and now deputy editor of the Sunday People and;
Mark Thomas, the earlier former deputy editor of the Sunday Mirror and former editor of the Sunday People.
Police revealed they had made the arrests on Thursday morning after a series of dawn raids.
The allegations relate to offences which are said to have occurred in 2003 and 2004.
They are being interviewed at various police stations in London and searches were continuing at a number of addresses.
A statement released by the Metropolitan Police Service said: "Detectives on Operation Weeting have identified and are investigating a suspected conspiracy to intercept telephone voicemails at Mirror Group Newspapers.
"This conspiracy is being treated as a separate conspiracy to the two being investigated at the now defunct News of the World newspaper.
"It is believed it mainly concerned the Sunday Mirror newspaper and at this stage the primary focus is on the years 2003 and 2004.
"As part of the inquiry four people were arrested at separate addresses at approximately 0600 hrs this morning (14 March) on suspicion of conspiracy to intercept telephone communications contrary to the Criminal Law Act 1997."
