Thieves have stolen a server from a forensics company in Kent. The server contains a database of highly confidential telephone records for use in police investigations.
In an official statement, Forensic Telecommunication Services (FTS) confirmed that it was recently the victim of a break-in and that among the equipment stolen was a server containing some case files pertaining to FTS' forensic work for government authorities.
