The Sunday Times reports that the Terrence Higgins Trust, the country's leading Aids charity, faces ruin after allegations of bad management, political in-fighting, drug-dealing and homosexual harassment. According to the paper, insiders say the criticism reflects a lack of confidence in the board.
The aftermath of the Rachel Nickell murder case is widely covered. The News of the World has an exclusive interview with Colin Stagg, the murder suspect freed after the case against him collapsed last week.
