Operation Tuleta

Operation Tuleta

Operation Tuleta is a British police investigation by the Metropolitan Police Service into allegations of computer hacking, related to the News International phone hacking scandal.

As of June 2011, it was reported to have 6 officers working for it.[1] According to a report in the London Evening Standard, Operation Tuleta is a "scoping exercise" prior to a possible full investigation.[2]

On 29 July 2011, Channel 4 News reported a statement from the Metropolitan Police: "Some aspects of this operation will move forward to a formal investigation. There will be a new team reporting to DAC Sue Akers". This followed a statement given to Channel 4 News by former army intelligence officer Ian Hurst (aka Martin Ingram[3]): "Police officers working for Operation Tuleta have informed me that they have identified information of evidential value in regards to my family's computer being illegally accessed over a sustained period of 2006. The decision by the Metropolitan Police to proceed to a full criminal investigation was conveyed to me this week by Tuleta police officers".[4]
