Version 0 of 1.

Portsmouth Football Club's executive chairman Peter Storrie has been re-questioned as part of a police inquiry into suspected corruption in football.

Mr Storrie was questioned on a "tax issue" by HM Revenue and Customs at Bishopsgate police station in London, a club spokesman said.

He was arrested in November 2007 on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting.

He denies any wrong-doing and was not charged, the club spokesman added.

Certain parts of the case had been passed to HM Revenue and Customs, which wanted to question Mr Storrie on Friday, the club spokesman continued.

"Peter Storrie yesterday attended Bishopsgate police station to answer to bail in furtherance of his arrest in 2007," he said.

"Mr Storrie has been fully co-operative throughout police investigations."

He added that Mr Storrie had been re-bailed to attend a police station in June 2009.
