A controversial police interrogation method that's been implicated in a false confession is under fire from human rights lawyers, criminologists and psychologists.

Last month, Crown Law and police lost their legal fight to keep secret the technique used in the Lois Tolley murder case, which collapsed late last year.

Ruth Hill reports.

Police are looking for four men in their 20s after a 30-year-old woman was killed at her home in Upper Hutt.
