Matt Nixson, former features executive of the Sun and News of the World, has been accused of bribing a prison guard for information about the Soham killer Ian Huntley.
Nixson sanctioned a £750 payment to a prison guard while working for the News of the World in March 2009, according to court documents filed by his former employer on Thursday.
Nixson is suing his former employer for wrongful dismissal and breach of contract and the claims were made by News Group Newspapers as part of their defence. Nixson, who joined the Sun in April 2010 after five years at the NoW, has consistently denied any wrongdoing.
