Four senior police officers, including the lead on police ethics, are being investigated over allegations of misconduct relating to their work on a gangland killing case.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission will look into the handling of an investigation by Staffordshire Police into the murder of amateur footballer Kevin Nunes, 20, who was gunned down in a country lane in 2002.
Five men were jailed in connection with the killing in 2008.
The IPCC confirmed that formal notice of investigation had been served on 'a number of former and serving Staffordshire Police officers'.
Last night, The Guardian suggested the allegations related to concerns over potentially important evidence being withheld from the prosecution during the trial.

 

Northamptonshire Police Authority confirmed that its force's chief constable Adrian Lee and deputy chief constable Suzette Davenport were being investigated.
Mr Lee is also the head of the Association of Chief Police Officers' ethics portfolio.

The other two senior officers involved in the probe are understood to be Jane Sawyers, assistant chief constable at Staffordshire Police, and Marcus Beale, assistant chief constable at West Midlands Police.
Nunes, a drug dealer who had been on the books of Tottenham Hotspur, was shot dead in an execution style killing after a gang dispute.
His killers, Levi Walker, Antonio Christie, Adam Joof, Michael Osbourne and Owen Crooks were all jailed for life after being found guilty of murder by a jury at Leicester Crown Court.
The IPCC investigation was launched after the men lodged an appeal with the court of appeal, which asked the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) to investigate.
The CCRC subsequently referred the case to the IPCC.
A spokesman for Northamptonshire Police Authority said Chief Constable Adrian Lee and Deputy Chief Constable Suzette Davenport had not been suspended and that 'we wish them to continue driving the force forward in these challenging times.'
A Staffordshire Police Authority spokesman stressed that the notices of investigation were 'not judgmental in any way' and did not indicate wrongdoing.
