Murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler's voicemails would have been deleted automatically after they were hacked by the News of the World, the Old Bailey has been told.

Once the 13-year-old's voicemails were listened to, they would become saved and been wiped by the system eventually, Mr Justice Saunders told the phone-hacking trial.
