NetherlandsPrince Harry lost a legal case against the publisher of British tabloids Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. Alongside six other high-profile individuals, he claimed that the publications had repeatedly violated privacy by obtaining information through illegal means such as wiretapping and hacking voicemails over two decades. They sought compensation of millions of euros. The court ruled that while the allegations were serious and there were suspicions, there was insufficient concrete evidence. The defense was deemed credible, and the judge noted that many events occurred decades ago, making memories faded and documents unavailable. Prince Harry and others accused journalists of using private detectives, bribing police officers, and accessing medical records and birth certificates. The publisher denied all claims, calling them 'absurd' and 'sensationalist,' and argued that the stories were based on legitimate journalism and contacts with publicists. The ruling is seen as vindication for the Daily Mail’s journalistic practices.
