Singer Ronan Keating accepts 'substantial damages' in U.K. tabloid phone hacking case
LONDON -- Irish singer Ronan Keating on Monday accepted "substantial damages" from a British tabloid newspaper publisher over phone hacking.
Keating's lawyer, Ellen Gallagher, told a High Court hearing that the singer had identified a number of "suspicious" articles published between 1996 and 2011 which he said contained his private information. Ben Silverstone, lawyer for News of the World publisher News Group Newspapers, said the company offered "its sincere apologies to the claimant for the distress caused to him by the invasion of his privacy by individuals working for or on behalf of the News of the World."
