"Former News of the World editor and News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks and her husband Charlie are to be charged with conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) confirmed at 10am today (May 15) that there was &amp;quot;sufficient evidence for there to be a realistic prospect of conviction&amp;quot; for six people charged with the offence. A statement from Rebekah and Charlie Brooks read: &amp;quot;We have this morning been informed by the Office of the Department of Public Prosecutions that we are to be charged with perverting the course of justice. We deplore this weak and unjust decision. &amp;quot;After the further unprecedented posturing of the CPS we will respond later today after our return from the police station.&amp;quot; A post on the official CPS website confirmed the charges moments later. Others charged by the CPS include Rebekah&amp;#039;s PA Cheryl Carter, chauffeur Paul Edwards and News International-provided security staff Daryl Jorsling, in addition to head of security at News International Mark Hanna. A seventh suspect, who was also hired by News International to provide security to Rebekah, was not charged and no further action will be taken against them. &amp;gt; Rupert Murdoch &amp;#039;not fit&amp;#039; to run international company, find MPs Alison Levitt, QC, Principal Legal Advisor to the Director of Public Prosecutions, said: &amp;quot;All seven suspects have this morning been informed of my decisions. &amp;quot;They are all due to answer their bail at police stations later today.&amp;quot; She added: &amp;quot;All these matters relate to the ongoing police investigation into allegations of phone hacking and corruption of public officials in relation to the News of the World and The Sun newspapers.&amp;quot; The six charged suspects will appear before Westminster Magistrates&amp;#039; Court at a future date that has not yet been determined. Rebekah Brooks was charged one count of conspiring with the other suspects and persons unknown to pervert the course of justice between July 6 and July 19, 2011 for concealing material from the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). Rebekah Brooks and Carter were charged with a second count of the same offence between July 6 and July 9 for removing seven boxes of material from the News International archive. Charlie and Rebekah Brooks, Hanna, Edwards and Jorsling were also charged with a third count of conspiracy with persons unknown to pervert the course of justice between July 15 and July 19, for concealing documents, computers and other electronic documents from the MPS.
