Police have made an arrest over the sale on eBay of a computer said to contain the personal details of thousands of council tax payers.
A criminal investigation was launched after the names and addresses, bank account numbers and sort codes of people in the Charnwood Borough Council area of Leicestershire were reportedly found on its hard drive.
Other personal details, including conversations about householders' divorces and family bereavements, were also reported to be on the computer, which was sold on the auction website for £6.99.
