Rebekah Brooks Faces Charges In Court
Rebekah Brooks, the ex-News International chief executive, will appear in court today to face three charges of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
Her husband, Charlie Brooks, and four former colleagues face one charge each of the offence and are also appearing at Westminster Magistrates Court.
Detectives from Operation Weeting, Scotland Yard’s phone-hacking inquiry charged Mrs Brooks, 44, last month.
The offences, which she denies, allegedly occurred in July last year.
Mrs Brooks is accused of conspiring to conceal documents, computers and electronic equipment from police and conspiring to remove seven boxes of material from the archive of News International.
Charlie Brooks - a 49-year-old writer and racehorse trainer - is also in court, along with Mrs Brooks' former personal assistant, Cheryl Carter; her ex-chauffeur and two security officials.
