A London judge has ordered Prince Harry to explain how messages between the royal and the ghostwriter of his memoir Spare have gone missing.In a hearing connected with the royal's unlawful information-gathering lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch-owned tabloid publisher News Group Newspapers on Thursday, the court heard that requests for Harry's messages with author, J.R. Moehringer, could not be fulfilled.
NGN's legal team are seeking to identify evidence that the prince had sufficient knowledge that he may have been a victim to the alleged unlawful activity before the 2013 date, which could potentially have his case dismissed.Previously, the publisher's lawyers successfully argued that Harry had been aware he could have brought phone hacking allegations against the publisher before 2013, with this claim being dismissed by a judge last year.
