Actor Hugh Grant’s claim against Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN) over alleged unlawful information gathering by group tabloid The Sun is set for a court trial.
Grant claims that he was targeted by journalists and private investigators for The Sun in 2011, which News Group denies, PA reports. In April, News Group sought to have Grant’s and a similar claim by Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, dismissed at a hearing in London, on the grounds that both had left it too late to file their claims, PA said.
