Prince Harry's attorney accused Rupert Murdoch of knowing about News Group Newspapers' alleged use of phone hacking and other illegal info-gathering tactics.

An attorney for Prince Harry accused Rupert Murdoch this week of knowing about News Group Newspapers' alleged use of illegal tactics such as phone hacking to acquire information about the Duke of Sussex and others. Lawyer David Sherborne went after Murdoch on Wednesday during a three-day hearing in London's High Court to add more allegations to the duke's lawsuit against the publisher.

The claimants have also accused newspaper executives of putting out false statements, erasing millions of emails and paying hush money to hide the illegal activity. Murdoch — the former chairman of Fox Corp. and News Corp. who stepped down from his position in September — and other execs stand accused of disseminating a false narrative that 'one rogue reporter' at News of the World was to blame for the espionage.
