The brother of murdered private eye Daniel Morgan called for a public inquiry over the death yesterday as he did not trust "corruption tainted" Met Police to re-open their investigation.

Mr Morgan was found outside a London pub car park with an axe embedded in his skull in March 1987 amid suggestions he may have been about to blow the whistle on the actions of corrupt officers.

His death remains unsolved and Met Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe last month indicated the investigation could be reopened.
