LONDON : A private investigator who worked for the publisher of the Daily Mirror boasted he could"get the queen's medical records", a retired police officer on Wednesday told a court hearing Prince Harry's lawsuit against the British newspaper.
He said Southern Investigations was involved in the"harvesting and supply of confidential information which had been obtained unlawfully, via phone tapping, computer and phone hacking, bribing police officers and ... other unlawful activities". In his witness statement, Haslam said:"Rees liked to boast about the information he could get. 'We can get the queen's medical records,' he once said."
Lawyers representing the claimants said last week that the Daily Mirror published a story in 1999 saying Prince Michael, the cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth, had a large unauthorised overdraft and a 2.5 million pound debt to his bank based on illegally-obtained information.
