They said they were investigating claims of collusion to manipulate the prices of oil and biofuels on the international markets.A leading city insider tells File On 4 that the price-reporting mechanism for oil is 'wide open to abuse'So are petrol prices being kept artificially high by hidden forces beyond the normal workings of supply and demand ? Gerry Northam investigates and asks whether British regulators are proving slow to recognise the potential problem.Producer: David Lewis.
