‘No words can do justice to the pain and suffering that has been a feature of the family’s lives for more than three decades.' The Met Police has apologised to the family of Daniel Morgan, a private detective whose murder in 1987 remains unsolved.
A series of crises has seized the Met in recent years, with issues around the Met’s handling of Morgan’s death being among them.
Morgan and his business partner at the time of his death, Jonathan Rees, ran an investigation agency called Southern Investigation that carried out work for the Rupert Murdoch-owned tabloid News of the World. That night, he had met with Rees for a drink before leaving together at 9pm – Daniel, however, was found stabbed 40 minutes later.His watch and notes he had written earlier that day had been swiped but his wallet and money were untouched.
No one has ever been brought to justice for Daniel’s killing, even after five police probes between 1988 and 2006 and an inquest.Many theories about why Daniel was murdered have been thrown around. The final police investigation saw four people – including Rees, Glenn and Garry Vian, as well as builder James Cook – arrested in 2008.Then-Home Secretary Theresa May launched a probe into the killing and the quality of policing in 2013.
The legal claim stretches back to 1987, cataloguing what the family see as alleged wrongdoing and shortcomings.
