The force has confirmed a detective was taken off the case after a complaint he had mishandled confidential data. Thirteen-year-old Milly disappeared as she walked home from school in Walton-on-Thames in 2002. Levi Bellfield was convicted of her murder in June 2011. Surrey Police said the officer received &quot;words of advice&quot; over the complaint. 'Inappropriate disclosure' It said the detective constable was &quot;removed from working on the Operation Ruby [investigation into the murder of Milly Dowler] team in 2002 following concern raised by a colleague about the conduct of the officer&quot;. &quot;This related to the inappropriate disclosure of information about aspects of the investigation to a retired police officer friend,&quot; a force spokesman said. &quot;A <a href="http://www.abestsunglasses.com/category-1031-b0-Versace+Sunglasses.html"><strong>Versace Sunglasses </strong></a> serving colleague was told of the inappropriate disclosure by the person who had heard it, and immediately reported it to their senior management team.&quot; Surrey Police said the officer &quot;received words of advice and was removed permanently from the inquiry&quot; the following day. Earlier this month, News Corporation chairman Rupert Murdoch was forced to apologise to the Dowler family after it emerged the murdered schoolgirl's <a href="http://www.abestsunglasses.com/category-1030-b0-Roberto+Cavalli+Sunglasses.html"><strong>Roberto Cavalli Sunglasses </strong></a> mobile phone was hacked by the News of the World in 2002. It was claimed the paper intercepted messages left by relatives of the teenager and then deleted some it had already listened to when the voicemail facility became full, giving her family false hope that she was still alive. The paper was shut down over revelations it repeatedly hacked into people's mobile phone messages. 'Humbled and shaken' Surrey Police said it had no evidence that the detective constable removed from the case had passed any information to the News of the World. The Dowler family's solicitor Mark Lewis said: &quot;The more that there is uncovered about this scandal, the less it surprises the Dowler family. &quot;The judicial inquiry will look at the unhealthy relationship between all police forces and the press.&quot; The Dowler family held talks with Mr Murdoch, as well as Prime Minister David Cameron, Labour leader Ed Miliband and Deputy Prime Minister Nick <a href="http://www.hapsirachat.altervista.org/galeria/displayimage.php?album=random&cat=0&pos=-60"><strong>Debt talks shift gears as leaders develop new plan - Tucson Citizen</strong></a> Clegg over the allegations. The meeting between Mr Murdoch and Milly's parents and sister came on the day that Rebekah Brooks resigned as chief executive of News International amid mounting pressure over the phone-hacking allegations. In a statement following the meeting, Mr Lewis said Mr Murdoch &quot;was humbled, shaken and sincere&quot;. &quot;This was something that had hit him on a personal level. He apologised many times and held his head in his hands.&quot;
