British actor Hugh Grant's claims that journalists at the Sun used private investigators to tap his phone and burgle his house can proceed to trial, but his voicemail interception allegations were made too late, London’s High Court ruled on Friday.
Grant, alongside Prince Harry, is suing Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers for widespread alleged unlawful information gathering that he says was committed on behalf of its tabloid, the Sun.
But the judge said the question of whether Grant's allegations of "landline tapping, bugging, blagging, burglary and instructions to private investigators to do any of those things" were brought too late must be determined at a trial due to take place in January 2024. "NGN strongly denies the various historical allegations of unlawful information gathering contained in what remains of Mr Grant's claim," the added.but a ruling in his case is not expected until after a further hearing in July, at which Harry will ask for permission to rely on an alleged "secret agreement" between Buckingham Palace and senior figures at NGN.
His latest lawsuit alleged Sun reporters used private investigators to tap his landline phone, place listening and tracking devices on his house and car, burgle his property and obtain his private information by deception.
