BBC has been investigating the employment by the Daily Mirror in the late 1990s of a controversial firm of private detectives, Southern Investigations, whose boss Jonathan Rees was jailed in 2000 for conspiring to plant cocaine on an innocent person. What the BBC has learned is that Southern Investigations was employed by the Daily Mirror and Sunday Mirror on 230 occasions between 7 October 1997 and 23 September 1999. The total sums billed to the Mirror by Southern Investigations were just under £67,000.

Not illegal but is it journalism?
Anyway the article is worth a read and I hope that Leveson is reading it too.
