At least one of the three Jewish donors to the friend of former Defence Secretary Liam Fox, Adam Werritty, is understood to have voiced serious concerns about where his money went.

The JC has learned that the donor would be prepared to hand over details of any transactions to fraud investigators at City of London Police.

The news follows a demand from John Mann, the Labour MP who has been leading the calls for transparency in the case, for full disclosure by the donors. He said: "If money has been misused by Werritty it is essential that those giving that money clear their good names by giving details to the City of London Police."

Mr Mann told the JC this week that he believed such a move could trigger Mr Werritty's arrest.
