Milly Dowler’s parents have reacted angrily to reports that former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks is in line to receive a massive £3.5 million payout after resigning.
Mrs Brooks stepped down on Friday, five days after the last News of the World was published.
Mark Lewis, the family solicitor, said: ‘From the Dowlers’ perspective it is astonishing that such large payments could be made to people who were not victims of crime hacking but associated with the perpetrators.’
According to unconfirmed reports, Mrs Brooks is one of several senior executives leaving the company who are in line to receive severance packages worth in excess of £1 million.
News of the World editor Colin Myler could receive up to £2 million. Departed senior lawyers Jon Chapman and Tom Crone are said to be in line for £1.5 million. The payouts will reportedly be conditional on gagging orders.

The sums mentioned have also angered staff at the News of the World, who are still waiting to hear whether they will be made redundant or offered other jobs.
