Prince Harry Alleges Unlawful Information Gathering by News Group Newspapers

Legal battle intensifies as Prince Harry accuses Rupert Murdoch's media empire of decades-long privacy breaches, with a trial set for January next year.

Prince Harry's legal team claims News Group Newspapers (NGN) unlawfully obtained his private information from 1994 to 2016, including intercepting phone calls of his parents.
The Duke of Sussex accuses Rupert Murdoch and senior NGN executives of overseeing a culture of impunity, with allegations of widespread phone hacking and information gathering.
NGN denies the accusations, arguing the claims are designed to attack the press and are unnecessary for the fair determination of the case.
High-profile figures, including actor Hugh Grant and Labour peer Doreen Lawrence, join Prince Harry in legal action against NGN, alleging misuse of private information.
The High Court hearing, led by Mr Justice Fancourt, is expected to conclude with a decision on whether new evidence can be included in the legal challenge.
