More than 100 baby deaths and injuries at a hospital trust are being reviewed by police.

An independent inquiry into maternity services at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS Trust, led by senior midwife Donna Ockenden, has been ongoing since September 2022.

Nottinghamshire Police, which announced a criminal investigation in September 2023, said it had recently started to receive information from the Ockenden review team.

Assistant Chief Constable Rob Griffin said all referrals would be "meticulously investigated".

It comes as Ms Ockenden's inquiry nears 2,000 cases, which are being handled by more than 120 clinical reviewers.

Of those, "more than 100 cases" have been referred to police, the force said.
