Prince Harry turns up to High Court in Associated Newspapers hearing

Feb 16,2020 7:36 am

Prince Harry has arrived at The High Court as legal proceedings begin in a phone-tapping and privacy case.

The Duke of Sussex and other individuals are suing Associated Newspapers Ltd (ANL), publishers of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday.

Prince Harry , singer Sir Elton John and actresses Sadie Frost and Liz Hurley are among the individuals who allege unlawful information gathering.

The publisher has described the allegations as " preposterous smears".

A four-day preliminary High Court hearing, starting on Monday, will consider legal arguments and a judge will decide whether the case will go any further.

When the legal action was announced in October, Law Firm Hamlins, which is representing Prince Harry and Frost, alleged that ANL's activity included:

In a statement released at The Time , the newspaper group said: " We utterly and unambiguously refute these preposterous smears which appear to be Nothing More than a pre-planned and orchestrated attempt to drag the Mail titles into The Phone hacking scandal concerning articles up to 30 years old.

" These unsubstantiated and highly defamatory claims - Based on no credible Evidence - appear to be simply a Fishing Expedition by claimants and their lawyers, some of whom have already pursued cases elsewhere. "
