Mother of murdered schoolgirl 'devastated' at hacking claims

The mother of murdered schoolgirl Sarah Payne was left "absolutely devastated" after being told she may have been targeted by a private investigator who hacked phones on behalf of the News of the World, a friend has said.

Sara Payne, who worked closely with the Sunday paper to campaign for tougher child protection laws, previously said she had not been told she was a victim of phone hacking.
