A former News of the World journalist told a British court on Tuesday how he used phone-hacking to find out about an affair between James Bond star Daniel Craig and the actress Sienna Miller.
The first trial from the phone-hacking scandal that sank Rupert Murdoch's News of the World opened on Monday with his key aide Rebekah Brooks and the prime minister's former media chief Andy Coulson in the dock.
LONDON — Almost 5,800 victims are now thought to have been targeted in the phone-hacking scandal at the now defunct News of the World tabloid, police said Thursday.
British police investigating phone hacking at the now defunct News of the World tabloid said Wednesday they had arrested a 35-year-old man on suspicion of conspiring to intercept voicemail messages.
Former News of the World editor Andy Coulson, at the centre of phone hacking claims, was still being paid by the tabloid's owners while employed as the Conservative Party's media chief, the BBC said.
