Prince Harry arrives at High Court for testimony in phone backing case

LONDON (AP) – Prince Harry arrives at a London court ahead of his testimony against a tabloid publisher whom he accused of phone hacking and other illegal snooping.

Rajkumar reached the High Court in a black SUV.

Harry has blamed the UK press for viewing him and his family as victims.

This is the first of many cases to go to trial. He accused the publisher of the Daily Mirror of using illegal techniques on an “industrial scale” to obtain the scoop.

The 38-year-old son of King Charles III will be the first British royal to enter the courtroom witness box since the 19th century. He will face cross-examination by a counsel for the respondent, Mirror Group Newspapers.
