A journalist at the centre of the phone-hacking allegations which have rocked Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp empire fired a warning shot at his former bosses on Friday and said those responsible for the practice would be revealed. In his first comments since being arrested in April by detectives investigating the hacking claims, Neville Thurlbeck, chief reporter at the now defunct News of the World, said he had no involvement in the illegal practice. “There is so much I could have said publicly to the detriment of News International but so far, have chosen not to,” Thurlbeck said in a statement issued through his lawyers. “At the length, truth will out.” News International said it had no comment on his statement.
