Dozens of journalists, including some national newspaper editors, have been named in documents as part of the Duke of Sussex’s High Court claim against the publisher of the Daily Mail.
In the publisher’s written defence, made public on Wednesday, Andrew Caldecott KC and Adrian Beltrami KC said the duke’s case “is without foundation and is an affront to the hard-working professional journalists whose reputations and integrity, as well as that of Associated itself, are wrongly traduced”.
However, Mr Caldecott and Mr Beltrami claimed in ANL’s written defence that the duke’s case is “replete with sweeping allegations of serious criminal conduct which lack even the most basic of particulars”. “In papers submitted to the High Court, the publisher of the Daily Mail and The Mail On Sunday denied under oath that its journalists had commissioned or obtained information derived from phone hacking, phone tapping, bugging, computer or email hacking or burglary to order.
