The Guardian 15th October 2004 named the arrested
woman as Claire Newell
http://politics.guardian.co.uk/media/story/0,12123,1328828,00.html
"The Sunday Times is facing a police investigation following the arrest of a young would-be journalist working as an agency temp in Whitehall.
Claire Newell has been arrested and questioned in connection with the hunt for a Cabinet Office mole who has been providing official papers to the newspaper for the last 15 months, the Guardian has learned. "
"Ms Newell was arrested on Monday September 27 at 12.15pm while working at the Cabinet Office. She was questioned but not charged and was bailed to return to a central London police station in November."
"Ms Newell was supplied to the Cabinet Office by Josephine Sammons, an employment agency in the City of London. The agency yesterday declined to discuss what, if any, checks it carried out before placing Ms Newell in Whitehall or how long she had been on the company's books"
"Ms Newell worked as a journalist in the newsroom of the Sunday Times in the summer of last year. In August 2003 she co-wrote three stories on police recruitment, education and TV adverts. Colleagues at the Wapping title said she left there to resume temping in Whitehall.
After school in Maidenhead, she had taken a degree in English followed by three terms on a postgraduate journalism course at the London College of Communication. She took up temping while still a student. She was placed by the Sammons agency in more than one ministry, among them the Cabinet Office."
