Prince Harry Gives Evidence Against Tabloid Publisher Over Phone-Hacking Allegations

He is the first senior royal to give evidence in 130 years.

Harry said that the press had blood on their hands and that millions of articles had been written about him.

He also agreed that he was hostile to the press.

The judge expressed surprise at Harry's absence on the first day of the trial as he had only returned from the United States the previous evening.

Harry is one of four test cases, and his specific allegations form the focus of the first three days of the trial.

The article is about a former editor of the Daily Mirror, Piers Morgan, who denies any involvement in phone hacking or other illegal activities.

The newspaper group he previously worked for, Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN), has admitted to phone hacking and has settled over 600 claims.

However, the publisher argues that there is no evidence that Morgan was a victim of phone hacking and some personal information was obtained from senior royal aides, including one of his father's former top officials.
